Il suppose my ways were rather

Perhaps introspection and regret
are upsetting this girls balance OF
common sense. Some kinds OF con-
fession are exceedingly good for
the soul-but not any confession
which would make a trusting wife
quite wretched.
The girl has done what she could,
she has done extremely well and
her letter is indeed what she wishes
it to be, "a warning TO girls of a,
sorrowful experience which proves
how environment may manufacture
misery for foolish maidens."

FORDSVILLE MAN
is HELD IN JAIL
Earslcy Farmer Charged With For.
gerry; Second Attempt At
Same Bank.

Earsley Farmer, white MAJ
perhaps 20 years of age. charged with
forgery, was arrested yesterday
morning and lodged i'm the county
Jail. The arrest was made by Chief
of Police John Lyons. The warrant
on which the young man was arrested
was issued by Judge Watkins on the
affidavit of Wilbur Bottorff and
charges that he gave a check on
December Z for $50 on the Bank of
Fordsville, securing the payment on
same at the greensboro Banking COM
pany, when he did not have the le-
, gal right to draw such a check.
: Following his arrest. Farmer was
sent to the county jail in default of
$500 to await his examining trial
this morning.
The police are of the opinion that
Farmer is an unusually smooth citi-
zen, for when r was arrested at the
bank. he was attempting to put thru
a second forged check and he had
been successful in passing two worth
less checks at Fred Weir's store. one
for $50 and the second for $40 and
he had also put over bad one for
$22.75 at Vile Brothers
Young Farmer is charged with
hax -fn w
Farmer to the checks that he gave
here.
When told in the bank that he
had committed one forgery and was
attempting to put over a second one,
Farmer telephoned friend in Fords-
vile, who told H. B. Eagles, cashier
of the bank, that he would make the
check good and that Farmer should
not be held. Mr.. Eagles said that
the only way in which the matter
could be squared with the bank would
be for the man at that end of the
line to Immediately make a deposit
there to protect the check and when
he failed to do that, Farmer was
taken into custody.
Several months ago. the report
was current locally that Farmer had
been killed in the South where he
had gone with a carnival company. !
1t has since developed that this was
a part of a ruse worked by the young
man to secure money from his family. |
Only a short time before he had /
written his people to send him mon =
ey so that he could come home. His
sent him $40 and he return
