A Father’s Sacrifice and Odd Fellows Elections
In Cleveland last week an indictment against M M Perkins former Collins Ohio ex postmaster for bond falsification was quashed and he was freed. His son Jay Perkins, former Collins assistant postmaster, faced fraud charges and bail was posted by the father whose property was mortgaged to cover the bond. Authorities offered to dismiss the case if the son surrendered, but the elder Perkins remained reticent. The Odd Fellows lodges in Ohio discuss upcoming Toledo election of officers with a keen race for Deputy Grand Master between John H Blacker and James L Lowrey.
