Arrested For Forgery While
on Penitentiary Parole
Mechanicsburg, Pa., Feb. 3. —Chief
of Police E. S. Cocklin, landed a man
in Mechanicsburg yesterday by the
name of Daniel Carmlch&el, who was
wanted at the Eastern State Peniten
tiary, for violating his parole. Car
michael is an old offender of the law,
having served three terms and has
been around town for the past three
weeks. As soon as his photograph
came," Officer Cocklin recognized it,
| and arrested Oarmichael also for
forgery. On Thursday afternoon he
| appeared at each of tl.e three banks
I in town, in an attempt to have a check
for S2O cashed, which was refused.
Cashiers of the institutions telephoned
| the police who arrested Carmichael
lin the American House, and he ad
-1 mitted his guilt. He is dressed as a
1 laborer and carried a dinner pall
when he went into the banks and
asked to have the checks cashed im
mediately as he had to the next
car, but could not pull it off. He was
also refused at the A. S. Jacobson
Clothing Store.
Carmichael was committed to the
lockup and yesterday afternoon, Rob
ert Li. Myers, special officer from the'
Eastern at Philadelphia; I
came for htm. He will have two and j
one-half years to serve for this of-!
fense.
! Thirteen years ago Carmichael
! lived here and was regularly em
i ployed. Officer Cocklin says he knew
j him well. Since that time he has
served a number of sentences in
various prisons, for a list of crimes,
chief of which seemed to be forgery
and larceny. Had he not violated
parole on December 12, 1916, the offi
cer said he would soon have been free.
