W.E. COBART

Norwich, Ontario


Government Detective John W. Murray has been prosecuting inquiries in Norwich, Ont., regarding a number of fires which have taken place in that town under very suspicious circumstances. These conflagrations had become so numerous that insurance men can with difficulty be induced to accept a risk in the locality. Among the half dozen or so parties implicated is W. E. Cobart, jeweler, in whose store the first of the series of fires occurred, on June 14th of last year. Cobart purchased the jewelry stock of G. C. Sutton about two years ago, agreeing to pay $450. Since that time he appears only to have bought $200 worth of new stock, and was insured for $1,000. When his premises were burned he was very hard up and owed one year’s rent. The inquiry lasted five days and it is expected that some arrests will follow.
