- Watertown Daily Times (Watertown, NY), Thursday, 27 October 1977: Norfolk - Norfolk store owner Al Smith will soon be $100 poorer, but he will be richer by one 17-foot canoe. Mr. Smith had offered the $100 reward on Oct. 9 after he discovered his canoe was missing from beside his camp on the Ruddy Road, Town of Norfolk. He turned the case over to the St. Lawrence County Cheriff's Department and offered the reward to anyone offering information which led to the return of the canoe. On Wednesday, Sheriff's Investigator Dominic Germano arrested Thelmaine LaShomb, 33, Rochester, on a warrant charging him with petty larceny in connection with the theft. LaShomb, Mr. Germano said, returned to Norfolk from Rochester with the canoe and pleaded guilty to the charge before Town of Norfolk Justice James Sabad. He was granted a conditional discharge after returning the canoe. According to Investigator Germano, the arrest resulted from an anonymous tip and Mr. Smith will have to pay off on his reward offer.
