them with lead quarters and nickels
Several hundred dollars have recently
been taken from the machines in this
way, and last Saturday $35 in lead
money was picked up in the wake of
Stickney and his confederates.

cOnfederateS made it difficult for him
to rent out any more machines. He
armed himself and several employees
with billies and lay in wait for Stick
