1881
S. M. Waite was brought to Brattleboro by the 10 o’clock train on Wednesday morning, by Deputy Marshal Sprague, to testify in the several cases now pending before the commissioners against his estate in insolvency. He walks the streets in company with the deputy-marshal with all his old-time air of enjoyment and careless indifference. Whatever else may be the matter with him Waite evidently is not a prey to remorse and compunction for his sins and crimes.

Mr. Waite
Search for “Waite” on this site and you’ll find lots of old stories about him. He was well regarded and did good things for the town, until he ran the bank into the ground and was public enemy #1 around here.
This snippet is after they caught him and brought him back to town.
They were really mad at him.
