Wing said that he first learned of the robbery when he met Fras-er and Hildebrandt on February 9 in a beer parlor. "f didn't know who robbed Low so 1 didn't talk about it at all." "Fraser and Hildehrandt didn't say that they had committed the robbery." At th^s point Perry called K. Evans, operator of FU.'iact Sawmills, Summit Lake, to the stand. He was being held in the provincial jail here at the time when TJ little Chinaman who was work- Eraser and Hildebrandt were ing in a gambling club who had ! brought,, to Prince George to give quite ft ,bit of money and we I evidence at the preliminary hear .should Orders for home beer delivery received by 12 o'clock will b* delivered the lame day.

Desbien told of how he met Wing the next day and Wing told him tha.t Hildebrandt and Fraser "had pulled the job the night before". "Walter (Hildebrandt) had a' new pair of shoes. I.asked ';Why'? He said that there was blood on the others." "Wing said he was a 'good score'," Desbien stated in referring to Chiang. Walter Hildebrandt. who . is servjng a year at Oakalla as a result of the robbery and who will be receiving the paddle .shortly, s next on the stand. He told how he a/nil Fraser'had bought a case of beer "that after' noon and consumed part of it in down-town hotel before^ going to Wing's place to consume the remainder. "When we met we talked, about the robbery and he (Wing) told us to keepquiet about it." When asked if Wing had been implicated in the crime, Hildebrandt replied: "No, we planned that between ourselves. We were planning trouble that night anyway." , / , At this point Jurtge Wilson declared Hildebrandt a hostile wit-" ness, permitting crown counsel to cross-examine him. Hildebrandt appeared on the stand again Tuesday morning and H. R. Fretwell submitted as evidence a statement, which was taken from Hildebrandt at Oakalla Prison Farm late in August. Following questions directed to him by Perry, counsel for Wing, be confessed that he didit't mind making different statements at different times.-.' He said that the court did not have to believe anything he had to say. "In other words you're a" self-confessed liar?" Perry asked. "I guess so," was the reply. Robert James Fraser, who also took part in the robbery, then took the stand.- His story was similar to Hllde-brandt's. He told of how he went clown to Chiang's dwelling across from the Government Liquor Store-and how he waited to jump "the Chinaman" who was supposed to be coming home with a large sum of money on his person. "I waited for him. Hit him but couldn't get nothing. Couldn't find anything," At this point Perry called the accused Wing to the starid. ¦ '¦ He told the court that (he was born in Barkerville and that he had lived in the Cariboo all of his life. ' "' ' j . •At the time of the robbery,'on February S, he said that he was working at the Golden Pheasant Cafe on Second Avenue. He stated" that the did not know anything about the alleged meeting with Desbien, Hildehrandt :ind Fraser during the afternoon ing. Evans said that he saw the two men, Fraser and Hildebrandt, comparing notes o,n the testimony, that they were about to give. He said that he went over to talk to them and they said that if they would co-operate in this (Wing's) case they would probably evade the peddle. In presenting' his argument, Perry said, "There is a peculiar atmosphere and background to this case. The whole thing Is full of shadow and doubt." "The two»crown witnesses (referring to Fraser and Hildebrandt) have claimed they have told the same story today as yes-' terday." H. R. Fretwell! crown counsel, said that he felt Desbien's evidence should be conclusive and that Wing be found guilty. ' Perry remarked that the statement given by Hildebrandt at Oakalla was vital to the case, but now he. (Hildebrandt) wouldn't endorse it. ¦¦.; ' . ..' "He retracts statements and concludes his testimony by saying that he is a liar.", At this point Justice Wilson reviewed the evidence gl^n-during the case. The jury retired for three quarters of an hour and returned a verdict that Wing,was not guilty on both counts. swiss skm seup*toe.
