NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY. DECEMBER 1S. 1880.


A number of our citizens have been
victimized out of small sums by young
man named Shields, by bare faced cheek
and audacity. He would make claim
upon, them for small sums of money
that he had hadaec0mmodated]them with,
mentioning transactions during the
summer which they would remember,
but would have no recollection of Mr.
Shields kindness, but he being 50 mi
mute in detailingt he transaction, and
circumstances under which he was so
Obliging, some thought that they
might of forgotten their obligations to
him and would pay him. Another plan
he had was to visit different merchants
and claim that when making purchases
they could not make change and had re-
quested him to call at some other time
for it. He tried this at several places
but it failed to work, in any that we
have heard. He visited Rev. Charles A.
Marsh pastor of the Congregational
cnurcn and made claim fOr Sl.5O, stating
that at one of the services at the church
collection was taken up for the Young
Mems Christian association. That desir-
ing to contribute fifty cents and having
nothing less than two dollar bill he
gave it to Mr.. Marsh who could not make
the change but told him to call upon
him at anytime and he would give him
the $1.50 in change. Tuesday last he
waited upon Mr.. Marsh three times, but
as there never had been a collection
taken up for that association he did not
succeed. Mr.. Marsh accused him of
falsehood, but according to the young
mans story he was model young man
never having done wrong action in his
life.
