FLOEIST TURNS SLEUTH. 



Through some keen detective work 

 on the part of John Butterworth, of 

 Framingham, Mass., William B. Lan- 

 nell, 33 years of age and claiming resi- 

 dence in Lynn, Mass., is in the hands 

 of the police and held under $3,000 

 bonds to the grand jury for attempting 

 to pass a forged check on Mr. Butter- 

 worth. Lannell bought $30 worth of 

 floral pieces of Mr. Butterworth "for 

 the funeral of a relative," tendering in 

 payment a cheek for $610.50 drawn on a 

 Watertown bank in favor of A. E. Joyce 

 and bearing the signature of William 

 Faimier. Lannell said to Mr. Butter- 

 worth that as he was not known in 

 Framingham he would ask him to en- 

 dorse the check so that he could get the 

 money to pay for the flowers. Mr.

Butterworth asked Lannell to leave the 

 check with him and go to the Framing- 

 ham Trust Co. and see if the arrange- 

 ment would be acceptable to the bank. 

 Lannell left the check, but did not go 

 to the bank or return to Mr. Butter- 

 worth, who notified the police. The cul- 

 prit was soon rounded up and identified 

 by his would-be victim. 



At the courthouse in Framingham, 

 August 18, Lannell was identified by H.

W. Vose, of Attleboro, Aylward Bros., 

 of Woburn, and others. Lannell then 

 admitted to the police that he passed 

 worthless checks in Maiden, Somerville, 

 Cambridge, Woburn and other cities. 

 He is also wanted in Vermont and Con- 

 necticut. Lannell has worked his bad 

 checks principally on florists and under- 

 takers and J. Butterworth 'g good sleuth 

 work has received many words of com- 

 mendation. O. W.'
