Diary of Clifford Rose
26 Aug 1929: “Have had a peculiar case in court latey. The old Highland fighting spirit is not dead yet. Some two year ago Garnet BRINE, candy dealer in Antigonish was knocked out by Red McDurwold from Lismore. This summer BRINE hired two of the Cobalt MacDonalds to beat up Red. They laid for him but he beat them up. Then BRINE got drunk, hired eight hard men and went out to Red’s. They awakened him and his brother but Red was there again for on the first charge 3 men went down. The two brothers beat up the eight then swore out a warrant for BRINE, for committing a riot. I arrested BRINE and he had a beautiful pair of black eyes. Case was adjourned because the information was made out wrong for one man cannot be charged with committing a riot.”
