A click CUSTOMER ALL ROUND.
About two years ago man came
along on the road and was employed by
months and paid him wages besides
him with new rubber boots
and clothing. At the end of two months
he be r.owed $40 of Mr. Waters on pre-
text that he was going to Hartford to
collect the money on note for $3.50,
which was due him there, and would
soon be back and repay the loan. He
had not been heard of until the 10Th,
when Mr. Waters got word that he was
at the Oak Tree House in Southbury.
Procuring the services of Deputy Sheriff
r. W. Habbell he went there and found
his man In bed. He was positive he had
never seen Mr. Waters, but was brought
before Justice Robinson charged with
obtaining money under false pretenses,
to which charge he plead guilty. and bis
fine and costs amounted to $25 55, besides
he was sentenced to 80 days In jail. He
has been out from the Litchfe IL Jail but

ing q hott keeper out of board. He

assistance from some of the members
here and in Seymour. He is rather
