B6A small farmer, by the name of Mes
singer, in Highland county, Ohio, who had
heretofore sustained good character, was
detected with lot of counterfeit money,
and when confronted with the charge, he
confessed that he received the money from
certain parties in Philadelphia, and produced
letters in relation thereto, which are now
in the hands of magistrate, and clearly
reveal the existence of large society OF
villains called "The Mystic Circle of Al
ehemy." The letters are written in cypher,
and are signed with fictitious names. The
pass word for the present year is "Death.
The initiation fee is 50, and members
on entering are sworn to secresy. In their
slang the word spills" is used to represent
bogus coin, and "powders designates
counterfeit paper. Steps have been taken
for the arrest of the leaders at Philadelphia.
Messenger duplicates many respectable men
in his own vicinity, as dealers with the
gang.
