Bill Kent's Little Kit Exposes Counterfeiting Guilt
Police secured damning evidence against Bill Kent for counterfeiting and passing counterfeit money after a Scranton arrest. Chief Simpson and his men traced Kent to Swede King on Hickory street, where Kent left a basket containing a complete silver plating kit. The kit's discovery undermines Kent's tale of a John Buckley supplying the counterfeits and points to hidden moulds and tools used in the scheme.
