Five Years For Forging Checks In Yellowstone Case
A Montana man was sentenced by Judge J. Miller Smith to five years in the penitentiary for forging and uttering checks tied to Yellowstone Park. Special Prosecutor George E. Hurd outlined the scheme, noting about 20 checks passed through the offender’s hands. The defense cited his prior service with Montana volunteers. The case touched on the state’s handling of the broader financial scheme and the judge indicated the option of a longer sentence was possible but constrained by circumstances. In a related note, the Senate appropriations committee raised Yellowstone Park maintenance funds and road improvements, and Elsie Wells was named postmaster at Kingsley, Montana.
