That was the amount of the cash bond which he posted at police headquarters to | guarantee his appearance in court this morning, but he failed to pre- sent himself. When arrested Ahern had in his { possession $140 in bills. During the | evening, when he had recovered | sufficiently from the effects of the | liauor, he was released with $30 in his possession. The large bond was asked for by the police for the rea- 'son that they felt he might again fall by the wayside and that upen awaking, would find that his money had disappeared. Much to their sur- prise, Ahern failed to appear before the prosecutor this morning. Ahern still has a chance to elaim the bond, however, inasmuch as no court session was held this morning jand consequently the bond has not as vet been forfeited. oy Burglars in Juvenile Court he two boys, aged 12 and 1§ yea who? were arrested for break- ing and entering the store of the Bristol Hardware Company on North Main street several days ago, were brought before Judge Joseph M. Donovan at a special session of the juvenile court yesterday. One of the youths was sentenced to the school for boys in Meriden.
