W. H. Cohee, of Indianapolis, was arrested by Sheriff Hoover Thursday, and brought here to answer a charge of embezzlement. The sheriff had been to Jeffersonville to take the self-confessed forger, Reuben Blackmore, there, and stopped in Indianapolis to get Cohee on his return trip. - -;-•••■• The case against Cohee was brought by Mrs. L. H. Wylie, who some time ago caused the arrest of C. P. Wright on the same charge. The allegation is that Wright and Cohee together defrauded Mrs. Wylie out of about $1,500. The men claim that they can easily clear themselves and are giving but little attention to the charge. Cohee was placed under SSOO bail, was furnished, and he returned to Indianapolis.
