POCKLINGTON
DIDN'T ASK
FOR ADVICE -

‘TORONTO (CP) Cinqullimittionaire Peter Pocklington
‘says he spoke’ several times with psychic Rita Burns on
business and personal ‘matters, including a possible

j illegitimate child, but never took her advice.

During cross-examination Tuesday.in the seventh ad

ofa breach-of-contract lawsuit by Burns against ‘the

Edmonton businessman, Pocklington, 41, said he once
mentioned to Burns that he may have fathered an ill

Burns claims Pocklington owes her $7 million for advite
she provided in 1977, but Poeklington says there never wis

;/an’agreement to pay for thelr meetings.

In testimony during a pre-trial hearing that was read

: into the record Tuesday, Pocklington said Burns brought
“the topic of women during’ their second meeting in asco :
#1977, at‘an Oakville, Ont., restaurant.

‘Pocklington said the ‘Toronto psychic asked him if. he
-had a relationship with a woman named Mararet or Maggie
and ‘then-askesd him if he had ever had a child out of

‘wedlock.
*, Pocklington replied he had had a relationship with a

Gene named Margaret when he was 18 or 19.

“I believe she became pregnant and had a kid,” Pock-
lington ‘said in his conversation with Burns.
He added he believed the child was put up for Adoption
ASK FOR ADVICE
When asked by Ronald Leiberman, Burns's lawyer, if he
ever ‘asked for her advice on the matter, Pocklington

| answered:

“Tt was not something I wanted advice on from her or
anybody else.
“It’s a part of growing up in a free society that those
things happen. We didn't have pills in those days.”
Burns, 88, is suing Pocklington for breach of contract,
he failed to pay 10 per cent of the investment for
dealings on which he was allegedly advised. Pocklington
says no such deal was struck.

After a week of various allegations by Burka
Pocklington’ 's dislike for the woman became apparent.

: Responding to a question about an allegation by Burns
that he attempted to seduce her during their final meeting,
which took place at a Toronto hotel, he said: “When you have
steak at home, you don't chase hamburger.”

Pocklington told the Ontario Supreme Court jury that
during the four meetings between him and Burns in 1977, he
discussed a number of business dealings, including the
acquisition of shares of Pop Shoppes International Inc. and
the purchase of 2,500 apartment tinits a Toronto and nearby
Brampton.
