sentence in Davenport, for beating o
board bill at the Kimball house.
When he reached this vicinity he
had references to burn, to clergymen
and other good people all over the
country. mainly in the south. 1t
appeared that Marson had staid in
the south until It got too hot to BE-
comfortable for him, and then he
came north to find rest and fresh
victims. He found the victims. and
he is now in seclusion. receiving no
callers, and having nothing what.
ever to do but to manufacture yard
or SO OF macadam q day, and. it is
fair to presume, he is getting the
rest all right.
Several Of the men whom Marson
said he knew, and who knew him to
be all right, and on whom he gave
reference, have been written to. but
no replies have been received, the
letters being returned with the in
formation that no such addresses
we're to be found.
After Msrson arrived in Davenport,
where he established his headquar-
tiers for the book agency Dusi-
ness, he wrote to Georgia clergy
man for SIS, stating that he wanted
the money to pay the railroad fare of
q poor but honest young man desir-
ing to 60 to Georgia and take up the
study Of theology and divinity
with the clergyman. The latter does
not say whether he sent the money
OF not, from which it may be in
ferred that he did. II so he is still
watching for the arrival of the poor
divinity student. Marson woI ked
