Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1881-08-02

Editor Morning Ne,os: ask permission
to use your valuable paper to contradict the
statements made in one of the public prints
on the 10Th instant, against Frank Libby, In
reference to robbery in boarding house,
and to fully set forth the facts in the case.
One Of the statements assails this young
man in this way: When not engaged in
became an open-sesame, so to speak, of the
boarders' trunks, and with his keys, and
sometimes with his fingers, purloined
great deal of loose change, ard finally en-
tered pantaloons and trunks, and slipped
away with hundred-and-fifty dollar gold
watch and about $50 in money, etc.
Now, after a careful investigation into the
character of Mr.. Libby, | fiud he is a car
rage blacksmith, originally from Portland,
Me-, and while here was employed in the
shop OF the s., F. q W. Ry. at one dollar
and fifty cents per day, and while in the
company's employ never lost an hour. He
is from honest and upright parents, who
reside in Thomasville, and is married to an
estimable young lady, whose parents are of
good standing In Dublin, in this State.
1t is found that his reputation Is beyond re-
proach. Now, to the exposure of the crime,
which will satisfactorily exonerate Mr.. Lib
by In every particular.
The day after Mr.. Libby left the boarding
house, the landladY's sons trunk was I'M
locked and robbed of a gold watch and SIS
in money, clothing etc.
There was one young man boarding there
at the time who pretended to lose a watch
also. This man did so plot, and artfullv.
with fine talk, instill into the minds of the
victim and his mother that Libby was the
perpetrator, even giving his aid in watching
the trains, and did so forcibly impress
upon them, that they were completely
thrown off their guard. A few DAYS later
repetition OF the trunk opening occurred,
the victim again losing $25 in money, cloth
ing, etc, the young man claiming, also,
he had lost something. Up to this time he
had shown up like a beacon light to the
family. Suspicion no longer rested on
Libby, but so strong against him that
warrant was procured for his
arrest, and a search warrant for a
house where he was at times living
The officer and victim went in search of
the house, and found the festive young man
partaking of q sumptuous breakfast; but at
their approach, guilt prompted him to fee
from Justice, but, through the vigilance of
the officer, he was brought to bay. In his
attempted escape he threw away an in
Vulnerable lot of keys of every description.
he was escorted to a Magistrate, ard there,
through mistaken charity on the part
OF his victim, he made a compromise,
giving back the gold watch, a pair
of shoes and ten dollars in money, and
SIMULTANEOUSLY giving his word as
gentleman he would in time pay the bal
lance, thereby battling justice. At every
previous boarding house his career is
stamped with deeds OF the darkest dye.
Doubtless the reports in regard to Libby
were given by this Villi6er himself.
The publication Of this article is the re-
quest Of many, to substantiate the charac-
ter and exonerate Mr.. Libby,sn expose the
real criminal OLD SIDE.

Yesterday morning about quarter to four
O'Clock, an alarm Of Ere was turned in from
Station No. Is, corner of BroughtOn and
Price streets, which was occasloned by the
discovery of FIRE in the unoccupied frame
dwelling No. 80 Broughton street, near
Habersham street. The Washingtons,
who are in the immediate vicini-
ty, very promptly responded, and by
well directed efforts had the flames ex
tlnguished before the arrival of the other
companies, who reached the scene In a
short time. The damage will not exceed
SEQ The FIRE was undoubtedly the work
OF an incendiary, and had probably been
started some hours previous, as at the time
it was discovered the wood work was burn
ing fercely. Rain had been falling the
greater portion OF the night, and few sec
Onds after the fremen reached the ground
tremendous shower set in and continued

Last night, after the close Of the regular
monthly meeting Of the Waiver Steam Fire
Company at their hal, "a pleasant incident oc-
Cured. This was the presentation of very
handsome gold medal to Mr.. VIM. B. Puder,
the engineer, appropriately inscribed, on
behalf Of the company in recognition OF
his valuable services in the several contests
Of the Fire Department since the orgsniza-
ton Of the present system, in four Of which
contests the "Wavers" were the victors.
The presentation speech was made In
very graceful and appropriate style oY
President G. F. O'Niell, who referred hand
somely to Mr.. Puder's connection with the
company and his value to the Fire Depart
ment.
Mr. Puder was completely surprised and
for few minutes was unable to express
himself. Recovering his self possession, ne
made a very clever and feeling reply, after
which the usual social enjoyments FOL
lowed.
The medal is a very handsome testimonial
and is in the 81 ape Of a shield, neatly and
evquieitely engraved, and pendant to bar
pin.
me medal is the best gold, and was fash
toned by Mr.. Peter Lindenstruth, the well
known ieweler, and inscribed in very
short period OF time. The design and work
manship reflect the greatest credit upon Mr..
Lindenstruth, particularly when the lin.
tied time is considered in which he had
to prepare it, Ga the diverse of the medal
is faithful and well executed engraving
of a steam fire engine. On the reverse the
following inscription:
Presented to
W B. PU Err,
BY THE WAIVER FIRE COMPANY,
In recognition of grateful services rendered
June T. 1877.
And also, 1879, 1880, 1881.
The testimonial was deserving, and will'
1t NAV be assumed, be appreciated by the
recipient, not for its intrinsic worth so
much as for the kindly sentiments and
friendly wishes Of his brother fremen,
which prompted its giving.

RroxynedInIhe River,

Yesterday morning, about IL o'clock, an
aged cOlored citizen was accidentally
drowned in the Savannah river. He was
sitting on bateau fishing, at the Central
Railroad wharf, near the stern of the City
OF Macon, bet Eeen the steamship and the
wharf. While thus engaged he was seen
to suddenly fan backwards from the bateau
into the water, and before
assistance could be rendered was
dead. The suppOsitiOn is that he was
taken with a sudden fit, and, losing his bal
ance, dropped into the water and sank be-
meath the surface. After falling into the
river, 1t is thought bis body was caught iu
the tow and carried under the City OF Ma
