enced to term of one year in the
state prison at Waupun by Judge Ran
dali, was taken to prison this morning
after waiting nearly week for the
coming of one of his friends who he
was DESTROYS Of seeing before he took
upon himself the stripes Of q prison
inmate. During the week may facts
have come out in regard to Moulton
which seem to indicate that the story
he told the court at the time of his
lsentence was largely chunk. =" A
paper at Norwich Conn, the home
town of Moulton, has the following to
say of him:
"Moulton blew into Norwich in Jan.
1908, and as he made his appearance
during the night session he managed
to elude the police and save himself
from being driven out of town as a
suspicious character. He registered at
the Wauregan hotel and lived there
until Manager Bland asked him to pay
up or take walk to police head
quarters.
He had secured a position at Raj
lion s grocery store at 81 per week.
He gave an order for his wages and
changed his boarding house. A few
weeks later Moulton met Miss Mary
Baker, o rich Norwich heiress with an
interest in metaphysics. After he had
learned she was worth some $4,000,
with the usual brass of the adventur-
er, Moulton talked to her of her pet
hobby and two weeks later married her.
He obtained control of her money
and in less than two years they sep
arated. She went to a sanitarium
near Philadelphia and her relatives
made application for the appointment
of CONSERVATION to save what was left
Of her fortune. 1t is said they secured
to her less than $4,000 and that they
were obliged to Immediately pay out
most of that to iquidate her lawful
debts.
After his separation from his wife
Moulton was arrested in New Haven
and sentenced to Jail there for passing
bad checks. George w. Carroll, the
Norwich broker, made good the checks
and secured Moulton' IS release on his
promise to negotiate a bond with him.
The bond existed only in Moulton 8

obliged to serve out the costs.
lie was arrested in New London for
refusing to pay bill for taxi cab hire
and later was arrested for evading
a board bill at the beading house,
Willimantic. For the latter offense
he was sentenced to Jail but later paid
up and was releas ed.
Afterward he came to Bridgeport
where with two other young men he
tried to conduct grocery commission
from an Office in the Security building.
The venture was a failure and Moul-
ton left town leaving many unpaid
bills.
The next heard of him he had re-
Joined his wife and the couple were
said to have gone to Denver in com
pany with a well known Norwich wom-
an and her husband. The woman in
question was reported to have opened
furnished room house in Denver and
it was said that Moulton and his wife
were associated with them.
Since then the Norwich woman has
returned to the Rose town Mrs.
Moulton IS present whereabouts is I'M
known to many of her friends and
relatives in Norwich, but it is believed
she separated from Moulton in Denver
and that she is still in that city.
An incident in which Moulton figured
to his disadvantage in Norwich will be
remembered as the suit he brought
against DR.. Atchinson.
Moulton lost a suit brought by DR..
Frank G. Atchinson to recover for serv-
ices rendered Mrs. Moulton. Then he
sought way to get even. He bought
from Frederic N. Carey, secretary of
the Eaton, Chase Co., bill which that
concern held against DR.. Atkinson.
Carey turned over the bill to Moulton
without notifying the doctor or with
out first asking payment from him.
Moulton then brought suit against DR..
Atkinson. Carey's conduct at that
time was the subject of much unfavor-
abe criticism.
