Counterfeit case against Elk Park man dismissed
W Bowers of Elk Park faced U S Commissioner L L Green in Boone N Y on an indictment for making and passing counterfeit money. The case was dismissed for lack of evidence amid claims the affair was a put up job. The sequence involved an insurance agent Hatcher dining at the Bowers House and passing a ten dollar bill through a clerk aided by a negro. Charley Patton’s quick verdict that the bill was bad led to Hatcher redeeming it, with Bowers arrested and the ship arrest concluding the testimony. The outcome remains undetermined.
