Not long since, Mr. D. J. MCCoN-
NRLL, Of Orange township, this county,
missed from his barn quantity of
wheat. amounting to about twenty-five
bushels. For q time he was somewhat
puzzled about the disappearance of his
grain, and he began making investiga-
tions. and soon he became suspicious
that a young man named PETER HoUs-
Err, who was in his employ, had stolen
it. Friday Of last week Mr. MCCoN-
NELL came to Findlay to attend the
Fair: but before leaving home he Sc
creted his brother in the barn for the
purpose of watching HoUsER's move
ments. He had not long been gone un-
til HoUsKR hitched up one of the farm
teams, and going TO the barn, loaded
up ten bushels of wheat and took it TO
Biuifton and sold it. Mr. MCCoN-
NELLs brother followed after, and had
HoUsER arrested. 4 warrant was is
sued from this county byD B. Boards
LIZ, Esq, and on Saturday, HoUsER was
brought TO Findlay by JOEL MARKLE.
constable, and lodged in Jail.
