tion in the shape of an inter-

Ward of County Physician, Supposed
to Be Poverty Stricken, Was
Possessor of Thirty-Five
Hundred Dollars
Especial to The Herald.I

SANTA ANA, Oct. 4-Working at
days labor for a livelihood, although
old and feeble, living in squalor and
dying in the charge of the county
physicians, Richard j. Proctor's death
Friday led to an investigation of his
affairs which revealed the fact that
Proctor. though apparently poverty
stricken, died possessed of a small for
tune. He lived in a wretched room,
where he slept on an old cot with two
dirty blankets for covering. His cook
ing was done on an oil stove and an
old chest was his table.
Public Administrator George S.
Smith Sunday morning heard of the
possibility of the old man having left
some money. He made a search in
the tenement house room where Proc
tor had lived and discovered a money
belt containing $33S0. The belt was
thrust in ap old chest. Two hundred
dollars was found in a grip. Other
money found made a total of S35S605,
$2410 of which was in currency S1175
in gold and S1.05 in silver. The dates
on most of the money indicated a long
time possession of IT by Proctor.
The old man had lived here for
twenty years, was a good worker and
well liked. For years his illnesses
have been paid for by the county. 1t
is reported that he was formerly a
dry goods merchant. He had been in
California since 1S49. His body VIII be

Haskins, the young Los Angeles travel
ing salesman, arrested some time ago
for embezzlenent as he stepped from

Haskins advanced the claim that he
needed the money which he took after
collecting a bill from a Barstow drug
firm for his employer, a wholesale paint
concern in Les Angeles, for expense
purposes, but Judge Bledsoe held it
was a most lame excuse. His previous
good character and reputation, and the
fact that he has young wife and two
children, led the judge to release him
on parole.
He has been employed by a Redlands
drug store, and will report every thirty
