John. He now became daZed with
fear and excitement He left the home
OF his boyhood on foot and made his
way to Philadelphia, where he CHANGED
to meet his step-father who was a
member of gang of counterfeiters.
John was easily persuaded and he suf-
tered himself to be led along step by
step until he was deep in the mire.
Our Civil war had brought great
change in the finances of the country.
Wild cat banks had gone out of ex-
lstence and new kind Of money was
in use. There was a great deal of
counterfeiting going on and John
Hartz was one of the number engaged
in it. Like the most of the men Of
his stamp he was unsuccessful in &C
cumulating wealth.
A counterfeit beer stamp made
its appearance in Philadelphia and
found 1t necessary to visit that city

pectation of making an important
arrest. The man they sought was in
visible during the day time and diff
ticult man to encounter at night. He
had frequently been heard of but had
seldom been seen by the government
detectives. When the officers reached
the appointed place they scattered
and took up their positions where they
would attract as little attention as
possible. Their mysterious mission
had been fully explained; deal was
expected to be pulled Off. One of the
detectives was rotund Of person. He
had, through one Of the counterfeiting
gang, been introduced as beer deal
err who said he was willing to take his
chances with bogus stamps, and he
had bargained with one of the coun-
terfeiters for five thousand counter
felt lager beer stamps, and was to
receive them at certain hour at a
designated place.
When the man put in an appear
ance to make the delivery he was to
be arrested. This individual, owing tc
the darkness of the night, was unable
to see the detectives stationed about

After everything had cooled down,

droyer was silenced but not altogether
convinced. His money was all rlght

sure it was of the right stamp Wnen
he handed it over to the young man
for safe keeping. Here was an exem-

sheriff was greatly puzzled regarding
his duty. He was convinced thaI
the accused man was innocent, and
he thought it might be safe thing TO
leave him at his home and go back to
the county seat and report before ma

there he was told to return at once
and bring his man. When he got PACK
tn the Black Bear Inn Mr.. We1sgarber
was out. He had saddled up and
rode away and might not return Tor
several days, perhaps never. But the
eood-natured sheriff didn't see 1t that
way. He would come back again, or
he might present himself voluntarily
at the sheriff's office.
