No. j77 Broadway. Expecting letter and remittance
from town in Vermont Mr. ii. applied at the Regis
ty Department in the Posi-Ofice, and wac informed

issued to those having registered letters. On examin
ing the rcceirtbook, the Of Charles A. llazeton
was found opposite the entry of the letter in question:
which signature was at once pronounced forgery by
Mr.. Hazleton. The special agent of the Post-Oifce
Department took the matter in hand and the spurious
Hazleton was in few days caught. Leeds was shown
mp TO the delivery clerks who at once recognized him
as having often called for and received letters under

plausible. The clerk in the Registryroom also deni-
fed him. The case came before Commissioner Belts
