Hill young men arrested as fugitives from justice by the West- erly police and held for the Virginia authorities for the theft of an auto- mobile in - Richmond last December, and who left Westerly for Richmond in the custody of two detectives from that city, a week ago last Iriday, are back at their homes in Potter Hill, fully freed from legal entanglement in connection ‘with the’ crime. They drove the stolen automobile from t south, spent two weeks with it in Norwich, offered it for sale in Provi- dence and finally disposed of it in New Haven. Since then the Rich- mond officers have been on their trail, once locoting them at work in a city in northern New York. They sent warrant for the arrest of Miner and Duquid to Police Chief Brown, and their arrest eventually followed. Prior to arrest they settled with the insurance company for the damage to the machine, in the hope of escap- ing_prosecution, but that did not sat- isty tht Richmond police authorities who insisted upon the arrest of the young men. After the arrival of Miner and Du- quid in Richmond, there was consul- tation between the owner of the siolen automobile, William C. Reucker, a hotel proprietor, and the Richmond police officials. The young men bore credentials from people of prominence in Westerly testifying to the previous 200d character and, setting forth that they had already received mental and financial punishment sufficient to teach them an enduring lesson. Mr. Reuck- er had been amply repaid for his loss and, under the circumstances, he pre- ferred not to appear as compiainant, and asked for the release of the young men The detectives told of the home conditions of Miner and Duquid, af- ter which they were released from custody, and permitted io return to their homes. Judge Herbert W Kathbun, counsel for accused. was in strumental in bringing about the satisfying result. Ch of Police Rrown stated to the Richmond police that there was mo_desire to have prosecution pressed, and that an Zmicable and lenient disposition “of the cases would e satisfastory to the police department of Westerly.
