tised on the top edge of the Directory
ployment exchange. His son, William
A. Shepard, Jr., was here and a clerk in
the agency for time, but went to Law
renee before the agency ceased to do bus
mess. His wife, who was Mrs. Shepard
No. 2, was quite good looking woman,
and attended to the management of the
business in this city. In fact, w. A.
Shepard, ST., was not visible here much,
and it was given out that he had CEN
trail agency at Boston, of which this one
was q branch. Mrs. Shepard No. 2, who
was here, was not a Portland woman,
having come from the West. Shepard
was not here much more than a year.
He went to Boston and Lowell, where
futile efforts were made by Portland
creditors to collect from him.
Shepard has fled from Canada to the
United States, leaving his second wife in
Montreal. The Montreal evening papers
reflect severely on the action of the
court in imposing such sentence as it
did on Shepard.
