100 Years Ago: 1924
Sheriff Mooers became suspicious of the actions of two men, Clifford I. Stevens and Stephen Hoppe, the alleged thieves and safe breakers, who were apprehended several weeks ago and who are now held in a steel cage at the county jail.
Calling in Deputies Tuscan and Crocker, the sheriff proceeded to make a very careful search of the cage and its contents, with the result that ten hack saws were found concealed in the bed of one of the men.

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
By joining the conversation, you are agreeing to our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is found on our FAQs.
