CLAIMED WORCESTER
AS HIS RESIDENCE

Anthony Waters Perry, arrested in
Lynn Tuesday for passing worthless
checks and claiming Worcester as his
home was sentenced to three months
in the House of Correction at Lynn yes
terday morning. Peters was thought
by the Lynn authorities to be mental
ly unsound but the report of two repu-
table physicians said he was accounta-
BILE for his actions. Chief Of Police VIII
liam j. e. Stone yesterday looked up
Perry's record and found his home was
In Auburn, Me.
For a number of years he has been
under the guardianship of Joel Good
win of Rockport Me. He served In
Seven@4 Maine Regiment during the
Civil War. is a member of the G. A. r.
and has been an inmate of the Togus
Soldiers Home.
Saturday he called at Post Is, BOs-
ton. and wanted to borrow $40. He
met Mr. Wallingford and the latter ac-
companied him to the Washington
Hotel. where Perry presented a check,
but this was found to be worthless, and
he claimed it was given him by
friend 1t was drawn on local bank.
Perry has had many dealings in
worthless checks since coming to this
city two months ago. He secured
board at the house of Andrew McLel-
Ian, Stewart Street and as time went
on and there was no payment he was
requested to settle. This he did with a
check that had no money behind it,
and disappeared
Since then he has visited many
stores, and endeavored to buy articles
from SO to $40 in value, presenting in
payment checks for from 500 to $500.
He never asked for the difference,
however, and did not insist on taking
the goods when the checks were re-
fused
He was examined by physicians yes
terday, and again this morning, and
they pronounced him sane and respon-
sibe for all he had done. Outside the
tender Of The bad checks, there was no
specific charge against him except that
he procured an overcoat from a credit
house valued at $40, for which he gave
a check for $780, and then pawned the
coat.
Perry told the Lynn authorities when
arrested he belonged in Worcester.
