South Framingham Judge Rules on Tomilett Theft Case
Homer Tomilett faced a first district court sitting in South Framingham on a charge of possessing stolen storehouse property. Witnesses testified to a large trade between commissary staff and traders. Tomilett was exonerated on larceny but fined 25 dollars for receiving blankets deemed stolen. Probable action against cooks implicated in the fraudulent sales appears unlikely due to lack of proof.
