The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-08-04

The man and his wife were motoring
along the Derby turnpike and near
Chestnut ridge decided to sit while
in their car. They turned off into
side road and. unthinkingly, the man
turned off his car lights, leaving as
he believed, only a small red rear
light showing.
After they had talked for several
minutes, a voice from the rear OF
their car startled them. The inquirer
demanded the number of the car and
when told. roughly informed the &C.
cupants that it was a serious offense
to stand in the highway without
lights. When the driver discovered
that his rear light was extinguishe d
he feared for moment that he was
actually guilty of slight INSIDE
meanor. However, a minute later
the man asked him if he would rather
settle then or in court. The young
man asked him how much it would
cost him and was told any amount
would do. i've only got $40 with
me-" replied ethe driver. That Will
do, of course you know it's a lot OF
trouble both for me and for you to
go to court"

New Haven, Aug. 4-Blackmafl has
been conducted by certain man 1iv-
ing along the Derby turnpike near
Chestnut ridge for some weeks past,
according to reports which have come
to thes ears of the horities in both
New Haven and Orange. Several quiet
Investigations have been made by
members Of the West Haven police
force, but to date they have been un-
able to get any legal evidence upon
the man. although one particular man
is strongly suspected. From COM
PARSONS of reports made by various
men and the amounts paid over this
man has collected at least 800.
While most of the persons con-
cerned in the scheme have failed to
make complaint partially because of
personal embarrassment in the sub
sequent publicity, sample of the way
the blackmailer works is revealed by
the story of a young married man
who was nearly mulcted outtof $40.
