Grange Notes.
G. F. Patch Disappears With Some of
Champaign Valley Oranges Fund.

George F. Patch, secretary and collect
or of Champlain Valley grange of Bur
lington, insurance agent and poultry fan
cier, is said to have been in Medford, Mass,
since Sunday night, and an examination
of his grange records reveals the fact
that he has been drawing money from
that organization for the payment of
bills and settling only small portion of
them. The grange has bought his
poultry business for $125, rather than
bring criminal proceedings against the
defaulting brother. Mr.. Patch left un
paid room bill at Walker lodge and
several other unsettled claims. 1t is said
that Mr.. Patch also swindled the state
and national oranges by collecting money
from the local organization and making
the returns by his personal checks, which
were worthless. A fancy post card mail
ed at Troy, N. Y, was received from Mr..
Patch by a Burlington meat dealer on
Wednesday reading: Happy New
Year. If the check you cashed for me
isn't good I will make it good"
