Like all other evil doers he had little fear of detection and exposed one of the stolen articles, a hair brush, on his dressing table and on the night of his wedding, my son, being one of the invited guests, could not help noticing the peculiar smell from the fumes of a cigar the groom was smoking and its aroma and its shape showed that it was a Corono Victoria, one of the brands that we missed.  Then commenced a closer inspection of the surroundings, and the brush alluded to above, showing that it had been little used induced my son to a closer examination and on the back he recognized my private cost mark, and reported his discovery to me.  Mr. Maynard, our town marshal, was called in that night and arrangements were made for a search warrent and, with that paper, the next morning the arrest was made and the young man acknowledged his crime, producing some of the stolen goods and promised to reform and asked for mercy at my hands.  His foster father's grief was such, that being a father myself, I could imagine his feelings and under the impulse of the moment promised him that I would not make my prosecution a bitter one.  The first affidavit was made by my son Warren, and read for larcency only.  On the evening of the arrest of the prisoner I was notified by the Marshal that I was wanted at the court house, at one for the purpose of making a second charge - that of burglary, and owing there I was told to do so, to which I asked if it were compulsory or optional on my part, then I was answered that I could do as I pleased.  Then I refused to make a second charge and said to all present that my reason was that I had given my promise to that effect to Mr. Thorn and the matter then rested in the hands of the State.

 

  The Marshal then said he would have to assume the responsibility, as he was in duty bound to do, and entered the second charge of burglary.  I know to well my position towards this community, to release a man (if it were in my power), who might repeat his offense, to say the least, if we are to judge his future by his past.  It is a great deal that he has my forgiveness, as a Christian for the wrong he did to me personally, but as a citizen in the discharge of his duties, I cannot and will not make it the least effort to liberate him.  To those whose hearts are bleeding and whose eyes are swollen by the sorrow he brought upon them, I offer my sincere sympathies, but for those who may censure my course in this matter, my contempt is unbounded. Respectfully, A.G. Pieri.
