A STRANGE STORY or CRINE.-The Boston
AGreTsiseT says:-A singular case OF deprayity in
a man OF good business standing has recently
come 10 light. DIR. J. X. Dillingham;, the we'll
known dentist OF this city, has just confessed
himself guilty OF numerous thefts charged
against him by Ascending for parts unknown,
and a strange story OF his misdemeanors g.
now before the public. AS tar as il known,
the first Of his peculations Was from Messrs.
Goldman x Shurtlefi, on fremont street, from
whom he stole at various times some 3 OaB
worth Of gold plate. Upon being accused
Of this theft he acknowledged il, and gave
his note for six months for the value Of the
plate. When this note became due he re-
fused 10 pay IL, and threatened TO sue Messrs
Goldman a. Shurtleff for compounding the fell
ony. This affair was kept quiet, and Diling-
hams next operation was 20 sell portion of his
business for s. 600 10 a man named Wood. The
property thus conveyed proved not TO have be-
longed to Dbl inl ham; the business was not
what he had represented ~, and Wood sued him
10 recover 81 500. He managed TO procure bail
Tor 5000, asd Was quiet Tor a time 6ntil his
father died, about three months since. and IL
a. then found out that the Doctor had forged
checks and notes TO the amount of S6 900. This
war the last of his knaveries, and the report is
that he is on his way TO South America, though
some insist that he has not Vet LEFT the city. On
two occasions he has assigned bis interest ina
his fathers estate, making profit Of ~ 600 each
tine.
