A stranger landed in town on Fri
day and registered at the Lambertyiile
House as "G. Bryon Ellison" Pitts
burg, Pa. He told Mr.. Ennis that he
had been sent here to take the place
of W. b. Oliver, who recently re-
signed his position at the Union
Mills at New Hope. He expected a
check in the morning and N. Ennis
let him have his dinner and several
drinks, for which he did not settle. He
next wandered down TO the Union
House and succeeded in getting Il
drink out of landlord Weiss on the
clear. He wanted another on the
same terms but was refused 1t was
soon learned that he was u fraud and
the Union Mill people knew nothing
about him. He took notion to leave
suddenly, going on the 2.06 p. m.
train He left derby hat at the
Lambertville House as security and
Mr. Ennis sold it for dollar. He
also left nice felt hat with Mr. {.
Weiss, so neither landlord lost any
thing on the transaction. 1t is thought
that the fellow was getting ready to
spring check on one of the hotels
but he found they were too smart for
him so left for some easier Location to
work his game.
