B. H. Silk returned to Norwalk last
night from Pittsburgh. Pa. “'hlt-
pay was held by the Pittsburgh au-
thorities until the local policeman
arrived. At the present time. the
accused is out under $2,000 bond
furnished by Samuel and Roger
\Vhitney pending a hearing.
Sergeant Silk declared that “’bit-
ney was apprehended under rather
unusual circumstances. Ibis al-
leged that W'hitney left Norwaik ac-
companied by a. young woman by
the name of Miss Emma Mailer. late-
iy of Bridgeport. with whom he had
been keepin‘gr-co'mpany for some
time. The couple stopped at Pitts-
burgh and Miss Masler applied to
an employment agency for work.
She obtained it. but found it too
hard and was forced to give it up.
But Sergeant Silk said, she tailed
to pay the employment agency the
required fee with the result that a
complaint was made to the police.
“'hen the police investigated they
found her with “rhitney who had
an automobile with Connecticut
markers. Becoming suspicious be-
cause Whitney did not have proper
operator’s license, they locked the
couple up and telegraphed the local
police.
Elsa Masier. by the time Sergeant
Silk arrived in' Pitsburgh. had been
released and had gone to her home
in Scranton. Pa. At the present
time. the authorities have a. warrant
for her arrest on a serious charge.
The chage. however, will probably
not be pressed.
There are three charges against
Whitney. ‘The first is non-support.
the second abandonment of wife and
children. while the third is of a. more
serious nature.
Whimey was in the uptown City
Court some three weeks ago betore
