Liberal BUSINESS MAN"
WAS A SWINDLER RIGHT
c. o. D. Package Contained a Scrap
of Newspaper-Owner is
Gone.

/. D. Brown had visited Liberal
last year during harvest. He liked
the country and decided to come
back to work this fall. When he
left his home at St. Louis he had
enough money to pay his fare and
some besides, but he did not ar
rive with as much as when he
started.
About the time he reached Hutch
inson he was approached by man
who seemed to know he was going
to Liberal. He was a congenial
sort and introduced himself as a
druggist in business here. Finally
he told Brown that he was need
ing ten dollars, explaining that he
had a C. o. D. express package,
which he passed over for examina-
ton. Brown said he did not know
anything about such transactions,
but the fellow was nice about it
and explained that he would just
let him keep the package for
security and would meet him the
next morning as soon as the bank
opened and pay him back and get
the package. The money changed
hands, but the next morning no
Liberal Druggist, who looked like
the fellow put in a nappearance.
After waiting a while Brown became
suspicious that all was not right
and hunted up Ray Millman, with
whom he had become acquainted
on his previous trip. The two
went before Justice of the Peace
T. C. Hubbard and the package
was opened-and continued a fold
ed sheet of newspaper.
So Brown is out his ten dollars,
but he says that he is through
accommodating people whom he does
not know.
