Watch Out for Bad Check Artist, Nov. 14, 1923

Warning Public Against Bad Check Artist Abroad

Raleigh, N.C., November 12—J.W. Little, claiming to be an employee of the State Board of Health, and signing checks as “N.C. State Health Officer” is wanted in several places in North Carolina and Virginia for passing worthless checks, and in at least one instance for violating the law with regard to payment of bill for board and lodging.

At the offices of the State Board of Health today Dr. W.s. Rankin stated that no one by that name has been or now is employed by the Board, and requested the widest publicity regarding this imposter in order that he may be apprehended and brought to trial.
