A SLICK ONE AND NO MIsTAKE.
William Maxwell and Ralph Bronson
got up against slick fraud while at
| work for G. Ward and S. Atwood on
some cottages at Walnut Beach. The
result was that Mr. Maxwell came out
minus 81 and Mr. Bronson mourns the
loss of $40. The party who relieved
them of their hard earned money gave
his name as William Perry and his home
as New York, and later he esaid that it
was Goshen that should have credit for
producing him. He worked for several
weeks for the Atwoods and boarded in a
cottage with Bronson and Maxwell. On
the morning of July 4, Mr. Maxwell went
looking for 81 which he had in his pants
pockets. 1t was gone, and Mr. Perry
told him not to mind, as he had plenty of
money, so he started in and spent con.
siderable more than 81 during the day.
Two days after the Fourth he complain
ed of being sick and wanted his pay.
The foreman wrote an order for the
amount due him. To get the money it
was necessary to come clear up to Wa
tertown, and to save him 1.-THE journey Mr.
Bronson agreed to take the order and ad.
vance the money, which was about $40.
This was satisfactory, until Mr. Bronson
went to look for the order at the end of
ed and no trace Of it could be found un-
til the matter was mentioned to the pay
clerk, who informed the victims that he
had the order and had paid Perry what
it called for. The fact OF the matter was
that Pony, afser gathering the money
from Bronson, saw where he put the or.
der and when he got his back turned
be stole it and started for Watertown
and there collected the $40 over again.
The boys don't mind the loss of the mon
ey so much as they do the thoughts OF
what an easy mark they were. Next
time any one tries to get pay check
caehed from Ralph's bank account be
will probably get Tint. And If they
try to give Mr. Maxwell an exceptional
ly good time without asking him to pay
his share we are betting that he will
feel around for his roll American.
