A RARE RECORD.
In His 2e Years Sheriff Sibley Lost
but $50 and Then Through Deceit.

The efficiency of Sheriff Preston B.
Sibley during the 90 years that he
served in Windham county as a dep
uty sheriff and as sheriff is no better
illustrated than by the fact that dur
ing that long term of service his loss
es of money involved in official pro-
ceedings with which he was connect
ed, the total of which amounted to
hundreds of thousands of dollars, was
exactly $50, and this amount was lost
at one time as the result Of the vio-
lation of a word of honor made to
the sheriff by a man in difficulty and
accepted by the official in good faith.
