day for the perpetrator of the deed, but
without success. On Sunday, however,
the fellow dressed himself in his best
clothes and came boldly TO the Summit,
thinking, we presume, that he could not
be arrested because it was Sunday. He
was speedily undeceived in this opinion,
for he no sooner made his appearance than
he was arrested, and escorted TO Ebens-
burg, and safely lodged in jail to await his
trial at our next Court. We understand
that the Indignation of some of the citizers
of the Summit was so great against him
that it was with difficulty they were pre-
vented from laying violent hands on him.
