A BOGUS BILL.
A Dangerous Five-Dollar Countc rfeit Note
Going the Rounds.

A Dangerous Five-Dollar Counterfeit Note
Going the Rounds.
A new and very deceptive counterfeit
five-dollar National Bank note on the
Central National Bank, of Norwalk.
Conn, is out. The genuine five-do!lar
National Bank note of the series of 1882
has the bust of Garfield in an oval frame
on the left hand face of note; also a
brown back with charter number of
bank in large shaded figures set in green
in center of back. The new counterfeit
gives the charter number rs 404 1t
should be sufficient to state that this
bank had never note of the series of
1882, and the charter number is not 404;
it is 2,342. The paper is good; the gen.
eral appearance of the note when soiled
is deceiving. The pink seal on the
reads "E PluribuS Unum
Sigil" The genuine seal reads .'Thesaw
Amer Septant Sigil." In the upper and
lower corner of left end face of the coun-
terfcit note the word five has been omit
ted. The figures of charter number in
center of back are much smaller than in
the genuine, and are not shaded. Genu-
inc five-dollar notes on Central National
Bank of Norwalk, Conn, have green
border on back and on front, red seal
red numbers, series of 1875. John Alli-
son, register. Chicago San.
