dicates a peculiar stato of atlairs iu
Wayno county F D Kellogg whoso
homo is given as Norfolk is not known
hero and tin report may lack founda
tion in this regard A gold brick
fraud of peculiar and daring design was
unearthed in this town today F I
Kellogg of Norfolk who owns a couple
of lino farms near Wayne was visiting
iu Lincoln last winter when ho itici
dontally mot J G Morrison another
Wayno county real estate owner Dur
ing a short conversation Mr Morrison
remarked to Mr Kellogg I seo you

farms No I havo not sold any of
my landanswored Mr Kollogg where
upon the Lincoln man repliod that
it was peculiar for tho transfer
had appeared iu a Wayne paper
Mr Kellogg had thought no more of tho
occurrence until today whon ho was in
tho Wayno court houso paying his
taxes As ho loft tho building it sud
denly occurred to him and upon return
ing and investigating discovered Unit
a farm of 100 acres had been trauqfered
from his ownership last December to
ouo R E Britton und also that tho
said Britton had mado a loan of lr00
upon said farm through F A Dearborn
local agent for Hudson Bros Co of

Britton had made sovoral trips to Wayno
since ho had first appoarod with tho
deed to tho farm and had it recorded
This instrument had been acknowledged
by a notary at Lincoln named Bennett
and the signature of F D Kellogg was a
remarkably good forgery Britton had
appeared in town several days at a time
wliilo tho loan wns ponding and ap
peared in no hurry to got away Ho
also leasod tho farm to tho presont
tenant for another year
Sheriff J M Cherry left today for
