Ere long he admitted all of the charges against him.

It was he who had entered the Prescott flat and had taken away Dick's watch and the fan intended for Dick's mother.

Clark told freely how he and his confederates had taken toll from the Christmas shoppers, confessing also that they had had a number of houses "located" for burglary.
The prisoner told, also how he had found a megaphone in the little "lumber loft" of the cook shack, and how, with this, he had improvised the ghostly sounds.

He had also found in that loft the snowshoes on which he had escaped from Constable Dock.
Clark--Mr.Fits--went away to prison for a long term, and Gridley heard no more about him.

The recovered stolen property was turned over to the owners after the trial.
