|Of Stolen Automobile
Further details of the finding of
! the Buick coupe stolen from Frank
W. Buffers home some three weeks
ago have been learned. 1t seems
| that two Firms living about four
miles from South Paris went to a
back field to do some work, and
found the car in an old barn there,
and as no car belonged there, sus-
pected that it had been stolen and
notified Sheriff Torrey, who investi-
gated and found it to be the Butler
car, of which he had a complete de-
| scription.
The boldness of the thief or
| thieves is shown by the fact that no
attempt had been made to change
/ the appearance Of the car, and that
it had been registered again IN
Maine in the name of a person who
| is known to the sheriff, but who at
| last accounts had not been found,
and whose name for that reason is
withheld.
Sheriff Torrey believes that the car
had been used for smuggling liquor
into Maine, that it was intended to
use it still further for that purpose,
and that the evidence he now has
will be sufficient to break up one OF
the worst gangs of booueggers in
! the State. He and his deputies are
working on the case. The car has
been repaired in Lewiston and it is
expected that it will be returned to
| its owner today or tomorrow.
