A Horse Thief Shot and Killed.

A Horse Thief Shot and Killed.
On Friday morning last a
horse was stolen from a Mr..
Miller, of Nile township in this
county. The thief came to
this city and crossed the river
to Kentucky, He was .pursu-
ed by a young man named Da.
vid Elliott of Nile, and Mr..
Bagby Of Greenup, and over.
taken on Briary Creek, about
four miles from Quincy, IN
Lewis county, Kentucky. He
was called upon to surrener,
but refused, and was shot at
and instantly killed. Differ
ent versions are given Of the
affair. The body was not re.
cognized, and the name OF the
marauder is unknown. Baghy
was apprehended, taken before
the magistrates at Quincy, and
bound over to court in the sum
of 81, 500. A large crowd was
in attendance at the examina.
ton, and great excitement pre-
vailed, the sympathy being
strongly in favor Of the accus-
e'. The indignation of the
people of the border counties
against the horse thieves, who
have been making frequent
depredations upon them, is be.
coming intense. Petitions to
the Governor of Kentucky are
asking for relief or
protection from the raids of
what are supposed to be or.
ganized gangs of outlaws

a number of persons who saw
her fall expected that she
would be dashed to pieces, on

very fortunately, the loop of

upon the blind fastener, and
she hung in that position until

condition could run from the
street up stairs and take her in.
