One of the city's recent guests who
lodged at the hotel de Clancy, is thus
affeetionately remembered by the
Kern county Courier: David Hitchell,
a disreputable, ruffianly character,
was arrested a month or two ago for
grand larceny. He found those, how
ever, who were willing to go his bail.
He was no sooner released from Jail
than, as might have been expected, he
absconded for parts unknown. He
afterwards turned up in Los Angeles
as principal in the theft of pair of
horses and wagon. He is now in Jail
there awaiting other suretes. The
man was arrested by Sheriff Rowland
some weeks ago at Spadra, and was
when he was delivered to the Sheriff
of Kern county. He will be taken to
that place to answer for the charge of
grand larceny.
