Mention was made in this paper
few weeks ago Of the fact that
Otto Headrick, who is now en-
ployed in large livery stable in
Seattle, had been robbed of $3.50.
The statement was also made that
Otto was morally certain of the
identity of the thief. He worked
around and put different clues to-
gether, SO he wrote his brother,
Grover, until he had chain Of
circumstantial evidence against the
suspect that was pretty strong and
then he confronted his man. The
upshet of the matter was that Otto
got back $35 in cash and the thief's
note for the balance of the $3.50.
Some may think that the fellow
should have been sent over the
road, but in that case Otto would
have received nothing, while as it
is the fellow has no doubt had q
good lesson, and will work pretty
hard to pay his note.
