upon about twenty physicians, he obtained

airy of 81 900 per annum. His forged cre-
dentals and papers were so cleverly execu-
ted rs to almost defy scrutiny. With the
money so obtained he made an attempt to
get to the states, but a prominent physician
having heard of something to Cooper's dis.
advantage, caught him on the train, and
without ceremony or an officer, proceeded to
take him TO the central station, where he
was lodged, not, however, till he drew q re-

then obtained counsel, who by strategy de-
layed the Issuing of mittimus till the "a

quite successful. He beat one of our local
agents out of some 5000 which he had COL

Burlington, escaped prosecution by false
swearing, and was discharged. He was
then arrested in St. Adams, but by the in
tcrvention of several friends, who believed
him to be an innocent man, his fines were
paid and he was released finally. Cooper
has lest his family, consisting os his wife,
two children and stepmother, with an un-

collected money with which this debt has
been paid, and a new home has been found
for the destitute family. The rent has been
