When leaving her home, Forrest re- turned the pocketbook, but when she eptered the house Miss Witte found it empty, Forrest has been living at a local hotel, ‘but he checked out immedi- ately after leaving Miss Witte and went to Hartford where he applied for a room in the Bond hotel. The suspicions of the clerk on the desk were aroused when Forrest tendered a $100 bill in payment for the room, and the' clerk caught a glimpse of the diarhond ring with a lady’'s set- ting. He notified a nearby police- | man, who questioned Forrest and placed him under arrest when he was unable to givé an explanation of how 'he came by the money and ring. When Forrest was arraigned in East Hartford police court yesterday | morning on a charge of embezzle- ment, Miss Witte appeared and said that she did not wish to press the charge of embezzlement against him since she had recovered her money and ring. The court did not take the same view of the affair and Fop- rest was held for trial next Monday by Prosecutor Percy 8. Bryant. Bonds for his release were set at $1,000, and unable to raise them, he was remanded to the LB!! Hartferd Jail. — {How Fat Actress Became Slenderx of embezzle- | fiantwfl"m & Qo 2.7 171 c. 2-7171 BASEMENT BIRTHDAY SALE THRIFTY SHOPPERS WILL FIND UNEXCELLED VALUES IN ALL DEPARTMENTS At the i'louseWares Shop Window ° Refrigerators $2.49 Galvanized Refrigerators with inside shelf.
