NOT HIS LONG LOST LOVE
Rainham Man Tries to “Make Up” With the Wrong Girl and Police Get Him
[Welland Telegraph, 30 August 1910]
Thinking that it was his former sweetheart with whom he had a falling-out, and thinking it would be a good time to “make up” again, Charles Bider, a former Rainham township man, but now a resident of Welland, followed a young lady of Welland (who didn’t happen to be his long lost love) around the streets on Saturday night and entreated her to come back.
“I’m sorry. It’s all my fault,” he assured her.
But the lady paid no attention to Bider until his attentions became too annoying. Then she called the police, who took the man in custody.
He was under the influence of fire-water at the time.
In police court, Magistrate Burgar fined him $5 and costs-$11.60 in all. The magistrate said he did not believe whiskey agreed with the man.
