Report on Abbotsford May Day celebrations with flag ceremonies and dances followed by a disturbing local incident. Witness describes finding a pair of pants and Sibou's dead body in a brush, with Knudsen and others implicated in a police inquiry.
Ragmal testifies about the murder of Sibou by Knudsen and his son Willie, including money given to Ragmal to remain silent, the body buried in a shed, and attempts to flee to Abbotsford. He recalls the two wheeled barrow removal, later burial site suspicions, and Knudsen’s plans to transfer land to Ragmal.
The May Day celebration will feature Bowser as a stationary gasoline storage tank in Abbotsford. Only certain motorists may benefit from this novelty introduced by Mr. S. A. Cawley at Sparrow's Bowser. The piece notes a death in Seattle of Mr. G. K. Peele, brother of Mr. P. Peele, shedding light on the community's recent shock.
An old advertisement from the Creamery Building in Abbotsford promotes a plumbing shop offering sanitary bath room appurtenances and a claim that good work is essential to stealth like a doctor to illness.
