He suc- ceeded in cashing cheques, one oti [ the Durham bank for $325 and one on the Flesherton bank for ?135. T ehequci in ouestion were supposed to have been made out by local men. In one instance he is said to have given the name cf Price, which was the name of a we'.l known farmei in the community who had an ac- cent at the bank, and in the other instance he used the name of Faw- cett. The police have been diligently working on the case, but have been unable cj yet to ascertain how the man "succeeds in finding out just who have bank accounts at certain banks, and they are inclined to the belief that he has an accomplice. Up to the present time there are no traces of the man. VILLAGE COUNCIL Flesherton Village Council met on Monday evening. There were pre- sent: Reeve, McTavish and Councillor Richardson and Dargavcl.
