JOE CIRARD
Is Doing Time in the
Sarvia JAIL Ont.
Inspector Russell Fully Identi-
flies His Man.
Will Be Brought to Maine Writes
Letter to Sheriff Richardson.

'"reI Orrin Choate to have Room
No. fixed up for me-" is the MESA sc
which Joseph II. Girard sends to Sher-
if Richardson from Sarvia. ont. 1t
seems to be reasonably certain that
the much-wanted Girard will occupy
Room No. s or some other room in the
Kennebec county Jail within a very
short time. Inspector Russell. the
Maine Central detective, who has been
on the trail of Girard ever since he
made the break into the Wateryille
station of the Maine Central Railroad,
Oct 49, 1911. few days ago, located
Girard in this Jail, which is not many
miles distant from Toronto.
Girard has been in Toronto and vi
cnity for the greater part of the time
since he succeeded in eluding the
Maine officers. A short time before
Thanksgiving of last year Inspector
Russell and Deputy Sheriff Choate re-
ceived word that he was in that vi
einity and made visit to Toronto.
They reached there but a short time
after Girard had left the employ of
a Toronto Railroad. They waited
about the city for some days, expect
ing Girard to get mail which was at
the Toronto postoffiee for him, but for
some reason he did not return at that
time.
A short time ago Girard broke into
a railroad statien just outside OF
Toronto but was surprised and cap
tured before he succeeded in securing
any plumber. Girard told the officers
a pitiful story. claiming that he was
merely seeking shelter, and SO was
given a sentence of four months in
the central prison at Toronto.
Inspector Russell, while Girard was
in the little Jail at Sarvia awaiting
commitment to the Central prison,
learned that his man was under arrest
there. Girard, strange to say, made no
attempt while in Ontario to conceal his
name and was known there, just as in
Maine. as Joseph II. Girard. Inspector
Russell at once went to the SarVla
iail, identified his man and had some
interesting conversation with him
Girard. in addition to the break in
Waterville. is wanted for several other
breaks in this vicinity, including one
into a clothing store at HalloweI. He.
is considered one of the most desper-
ate criminals in Central Maine. He
