HEARTLESS CASE OF FRAUD AND FORGERY.---OD
Monday, at the Walhall petty sessions, George Wilton, a
respectable-looking man, who described himself as a clerk,
was charged with forging a letter of credit tar £5O, under
very heartless circumstances. Wilton had been a station
master on the Shrewsbury and Hereford Railway, and had
become aware that a farmer at Eaton Constantine, near
Vireltington, in Shropshire, had got a son in Australia, for
whom he was advertising in a Melbourne paper. Wilton
then procured a letter, which purported to come from his
cousin, in Australia, in whose service he said was the
prodigal youth. The letter stated that the boy was re-
pentant, was suffering from melancholia, and unless his
friends could gratiiy his wish to return home, the writer
feared that his intellect would give way. Representing
himself as Mr. William Maitland, an Australian mer-
chant, come to Pigland to purchase Birmingham goods,
Wilton called upol the distressed family, and delivered the
letter. The old nail said he bad a bill to meet hut thought
he could raise £2). Wilton pressed for the kso, which' it
was alleged was equired. The boy's sister then said that
she had saved as much money, and generously offered, to
give it up to entitle the boy to come back. Yielding to the
" merchant's" desire to take the money in Bank of Eng-
land notes, the rung lady desired her bankers thus to ac-
commodate her. They, however, prudently suggested that
it should he sent -ty a letter of credit upon a banker at Mel-
bourne. The le ter ef credit was written, and the sister
added expression; of affection on the same piece of paper.
These latter Wilon cut off, and tried to obtain the £5O in
Birmingham, representing himself as the person to whom
it was addressed. He could not succeed, and applied at
Messr:=. Duignas and Co.'s bank, Walsall. There lie said
his name was Hebert Thomas (the name of the youth), and
so signed the noe. He was then desired to call again. The
telegraph was out in motion with Wellington, and the
cheat discovered:. Wilten was committed to the next Staf-
fordshire assizes
