The fol- lowing is an extract from the Star of that date and which was the subject iof the discussion; When interviewed by The Star after the meeting, Constable Bar- raclough had little to say on the matter. “The majority of the town have asked me to stay with them, and I intend to do so,†he said. “I don’t think I should be thrown out for a few councillors who don’t seem to know their own minds.†w ‘__ At the time of going to press it is possible that the police situation whi- ch has caused so much local discussion is settled until October 28th, when the council will again consider the ap- plications. As far as the minutes of the council meeting or any ofï¬cial ac- tion taken last night are concerned Richmond Hill is without a village constable toâ€"day. However accord- ‘ing‘ to reports the council got together after the meeting and agreed that if the constable retracted or denied the statement reported in the Star that it would be agreeable to continue him on until October 28th. If the above statement is satisfactory to the coun- cil there will be nothing further until that date, and Constable Ban‘aclough will continue as in the past. If it is not satisfactory however there would‘ be no constable according to reports of the agreement said to have been ;made. Council Postpones Action Regarding Constable Until Reid Appeal ls Settled Future of Court Will Have Bearing On Agreement With Constableâ€"G. H. Duncan Refers to Municipal Purchases of Chief Barraclough from Councillor Sims. “It would be a shame to go that long Without a constable†said Reeve Lunau to The Liberal this morning. He pointed out hOWever that a County‘ Constable is always at the call OI‘ citizens in case of emergency; Conâ€" stable Barraclough is a County Con- stable and retains that standing de- spite any action by the village. As such he wotï¬d be under Chief Phillips and would be paid by the County for any duties performed. The special meeting held on Wed- nesday night in the council chamber was largely attended. Frequent interruptions. cross fire and repartee in which citizens and councillors en- gaged featured the entire session and at many times order was lacking and decorum was at a premium. ‘ Councillor Sims moved that the ap~ nlications be laid over until October 28th on which date the appeal againâ€" st the conviction of W. Reid former traffic officer comes no. It was in- timated that the result might have some bearing on the re-establishment of a police court here which has been closed since October lst and that the future of the court entered into the matter of the hiring of a constable. This motion was carried. As constable Barraclough was notL fied of his dismissal taking effect on, Thursday, October 9th the passing of the motion meant that there would be no village constable until the date mentioned in the motion October 28th. A motion by councillor Davis that S. A. Barraclough carry on until that date was not seconded and was not out. Councillor Middleton seconded the motion on condition that Mr. Bar- racloug‘h would make a public denial through the home paper of the state- ment attributed to him in an inter- view with a Toronto paper. To sett- lo the controversy concerning the in- terview Constable Barraclough was sent for but it was reported he could mot be reached. Eleven applications for the posit- ion of constable were received. S. A. Barraclough applied stating a salary of fifty cents an hour, time to be arranged between himself and the council, which was the agreement un- der which he has worked in the past. Other applicants were, John L. Willi- ams, Jack Daunt, Frank Grainger, George Thompson, C. W. Harris, A1â€" fred M. Evans, Neil H. Grassic. G. H. Howley, Harry R. Jones and Roy E. Glover. Salaries asked for were all the way from $65. per month and mile age upwards“. A motion by councillor Sims that the assistant caretaker be sworn in until October 28th failed to carry. During the discussion G. H. Duncan brought up the matter of the pur- chase of goods for the village by con- stable Barraclough from councillor Sims. He quoted certain items from the financial statements of last year showing a purchase of $3.95 goods for tramps and referred to other tran- sactions where the purchases were in- cluded in the ’constable’s account. Mr. Although the records of the council meeting officially make no provision by which Constable Barraclough could carry on as village constable it is understood an agreement was arrived at by the members following the meeting that if Mr. Barraclough would publish in The Liberal a denial of the interview reported in the Star that ‘he would be continued as constable until October 28th. A statement is lpublished in this issue and if it meets \the requirements of the council will lsettle the police question until Octob- jer 28th. . Duncan’s statements were ruled out of order by Reeve Lunau who said if there was anything like that to come out it would have to be at a regular meeting of the council.
