News to Town Bondsmen Relieved of
Heavy Responsibility -Millbury
Notes.

A. S. Winter of Millbury has received
word that the registered bond which
was stolen from his store several months
ago, has turned up in the registration
office in Washington. At the time the
bond was stolen Mr.. Winter telegraphed
the Washington authorities the account
of the burglary and also the number
and date of the document At that
time d duplicate bond was issued and
Mr.. Winter was placed under heavy
bonds until the original one should be
presented. The break occurred several
months ago, and was similar in some
respects to the Spencer burglary which
took place recently. The burglars were
discovered in the store, and the entire
neighborhood aroused, but the company
lacked leader; and, as a result, the
midnight intruders We're allowed to
pack their bundles and escape without
being molested. Mr.. Winter stated to a
Spy correspondent recently that at the
time OF the burglary there were two
ponds IN the safe, one was registered
and was of no use to any one except
the owner. The other was not regis
tered and would be good to the person
VINO had possession Of it. The former
one the thieves took away, but over
looked the latter. The bondsmen of
Mr.. winter were released as soon as
the original one turned up.
