money until the following morning, when
he was wanting II to pay for some beef. II
was probably very Fortunate for him that
they looked no further for money, for Ind
they examined under the pillow whore he
was sleeping they might have found sl,6 y,
which he there had concealed, aud which he
had borrowed out of the bank the day pre-.
vIous. They next broke Into tue house of
Mr.. Thos. Ward and tool; from his pockets
two or three dollars of pocket change. They
also broke into Mr. L. 4. Nccdham's house,
where. not finding any money. and being
somewhat husg,y. no doubt, they partook
of the good things 10 be found la a cup
board. They tried to get into Mr.. Joseph
Puckett's horse, but were scared OF by his
wife, who heard them trying to break IN,
and hallowed at them.
We think they must have been travellers,
rs just before similar burglarIcs were com
mitted at Palestine, Ohio. aud at Portland
Ind. At the latter place they broke into
the housc of Mr.. Kuykendall and toek from
his pockets nearly one hundred dollars
Since then several houses and stores have
been broken into at Newcastle and other
places. Burglaries. robberics, etc, are get
ting to be of frequent occurrence in this
part of the country, and we hope our citi-
zens will be more watchful Of their houses
hereafter. Prepare yourselves with locks
and shot guns, and the frstcppor,unity you
have teach these midnight thieves lesson
they will long remember.
