LOOK OUT FOR RoGuE. - A young
man of about % years of age made his
appearance at West Rutland yesterday
his chief anxiety seeming to be to trade of
five dollar counterfeit Bristol county
| (Mass.) bank bill in exchange for any
small articles and the balance in change
After several efforts he succeeded in max,
ing small purchase at the store Of j. F
Freeman, and receiving his change he
made himself scarce. The bill being soor
ascertained to be counterfeit chase was I'M
mediately made for him by Messrs. Free
man and Howard, his clerk, and he wa!
soon overtaken on the Castleton road.
He appeared ready to "make it al
right" and Immediately rectifed the mis-
take with Mr.. Freeman, but upon invita-
tion beng given him to return to Rut,
land with view to further investigation
he "broke and run and took to the lots
making for the mountains west of the
"old CAKE and beer shop" Pursuit be-
ing closely made--in jumping fence he
dropped one of the several bundles he had
with him, and that fell into the hands o
the pursuers.
The young man above referred TO i!
about 5 feet II inches in height, stou
build, sandy complexion, light whisker
and small mustache. Look out for him
The coat obtained of him Is dark col
ored ribbed cotton fabric, worth about
FIVE dollars. 1t has the store mark still
upon 1t, and as it was undoubtedly fraud
ulently obtained, any person interested
may see the same by calling at the stor
of Mr. Freeman, West Rutland.
