The trial of Samuel D. Roby, of this
county, for larceny Of a draft for
$40. so, held at Portage last week on a
change of venue rom this county, re-
suited IN verdict Of guilty, the jury
being out only about five minutes, the
iurv in former trial at the same place
having tailed to agree. The punish
ment is from one to five years IN
states prison. The history of the case
is quite interesting, especially to those
who are acquainted with the character
of the defendant. A letter addressed
to Mrs. Lucy S.. Rice, Of this place, con
tanning the draft, and to whom it was
made payable, was found on the road
between this city and the then home
of Mrs. Rice, about one mile from the
city. The draft was FIRST presented
for payment at the Mayville bank, but
being without the endorsement of the
payee payment was refused. 1t next
turned up in Beaver Dam and was
sent by a bank there for collection to
the bank which had issued it; pay
ment was refused again, and it next
appeared in the hands of Sam ROby,
who tried to get it cashed at different
places and finally succeeded in con-
verting it into cash in a WatertOWn
bank. 1t was then discovered that the
endorsement of Mrs. Rice was forgery
and the draft was returned to the Wa
tertown bank. Sam Roby's arrest
followed. Two or more other parties
were involved in the transaction and
had at different times had possession
of the draft, but it was impossible to
ascertain Just where or by HON the
forgery was made. The case was stub
bornly fought, even a resolution hav-
ing passed the county board last fall
ordering the suit discontinued Dis
trict Attorney Sloan is entitled to
much credit in ignoring this action of
the board and bringing the culprit to
his just punishment.
Memorial day, May 80, will be prop
erly observed by the G. A. r. post of
