Easy money like that did not often 'come their way and they closed the bargain by reaching for the cheque. It was made out payable to Oliver Coady or bearer, was for five hundred dollars and was signed with the name of Theodore McKenny. 'Now Theodore McKenny lives above Lombardy and has a good sized bank account, Oliver Coady lives about two miles from him. When the little boy presented the cheque to the teller he promptly counted out fifty ten dollar bills and handed them out to him. The boys then went to the woman waiting out- side and delivered the cash, getting in return one dollar each: Soon after the transaction, the peo- ple in the bank began to think about it and decided, just to allay their sus- "| picions, to telephone McKenny. This they did, but their suspicions were not allayed. On the contrary, they were more aroused, because they were informed by Mr. McKenny that tie had not signed any such cheque. Then there was the search for 'the woman. She was found and the boys identified her, but she looked so inno- cent and talked so innocently that she was allowed to .. She gave the name of Mrs. David McCall and this is who she proved to be : the wife of David McCall, who lives next door to Theodore McKenny, in the country be- yond Lombardy. She is a woman about twenty-eight or thirty years of age and has three children. She started for home shortly aftes- wards on the Portland stage. The authorities, on second thought, decided to send Bailiff Polk after her in an automobile. lle overhauled the stage and brought hei back. She still protested her innocence and ignorance of the matter and looked the part. She spoke of a Coady girl, who, she said, looked like her, and who was in town (that day. The boys were positive that she was the right woman. She was sent to Mr. Polk's house for safe keeping and was searched by the women folk on or- ders. « They, reported that they found nothing. Meanwhile inquiry elicited the facts that she had spent about twenty del- lars in a jewelry store and paid Dr. Anderson ten oilars, all the money in Bank of Ottawa ten dollar bills in her hand bag of the same bank.
