Perdue on Trial in Grand Larceny Case
Leslie Marion Perdue faced a grand larceny trial in Judge Dwyer’s court for allegedly jointly possessing with Harry Allen $200 in Liberty bonds and $1,000 in postal savings certificates belonging to John McAuliffe and attempting to dispose of them. The case detailed a flood related loss, recovery of the securities, and the defense claim that Perdue lacked ownership knowledge while Allen negotiated the sale. McAuliffe, Goodman, and the pawnshop transaction were key facts.
