Prior to this he worked for and worked the Anlrews Coal company, and he was arrested for larceny from that cencern, being charged with the theft of eighteen baskets of coal valued at fifty cents each, total value §9. He delivered the coal to a cash customer, and not the one to whom it was sent. In so doing he falsified a receipt for wood, and thereby committed forgery, but this charge will not be made. Chief Brown questioned Payette in regard to his registration and his stories conflicted. The chief commu- nicated with the local board at Wil- limantic and ascertained that Payette had been ordered to go with the in- crement from that city Thursday. Pa- yette is undersized and was exempted from previous calls, but under recent ruling he was called to make up the present quota. He gave his address as Putnam, where, the notice was sent, and presumably Payette told the truth when he stated that he had re- ceived no notice to go to Camp Dev- ens. The secretary of the Williman- tic local board told the chief that the | board expected Payette to.report, but would not interfere in any move- that was made towards prosecution for Jar- ceny, especially after the chief gave information that ke would probably be sent to a state institution for saf% keeping, and within the grasp of the local board when wanted.
