load against the horse, frightening him into q
dead run. Rogers ran forward to ascertain the
cause of the trouble, when he fell between the
horse and his load. The sharp, ragged ends of
the lumber pierced and damned him frightfully,
so that he lived unconsciously for but a few
moments. He was 50 years old and leaves wife.

Unexpected Appearance Of BURGERS.


Sheriff Libby and Marshal Harrington arrested
Fred Brett. on Saturday last, for breaking and
entering the house of Judge Daniel Williams of
this city, ON the night of June 10th. Brett was
associated with George W. Wood and Jacob Boil
ton, who have not as yet been arrested. 1t will
be remembered that on the night of the burglary,
Judge Williams and his family were away from
home and returned while the burglars were oper-
ating, forcing them to take fight, leaving behind
them the property they had prepared to take away
They ran to the river and stole a boat and pro-
ceeded down the river to Farmingdale, where
they stole various articles, including q lot Of
chain cable of Dewitt c. Foster. Proceeding to
Bath, they sold their plumber, left their boat. went
to North Berwick, where they worked two or
three days ON farm, and then went to Mandrld,
N. H., and there chopped cord wood short time,
and then went to Massachusetts,, where they
stopped in various towns, till Tuesday, when they
returned on the boat, arriving here on Saturday,
intending to replenish their clothing and to see
the "old folks at home" and then take new de-
parture. They secreted themselves in the gully
south of Court street, so as to be near their re-
spectve homes, to communicate with their friends
and get such clothing as they needed, and then
depart in the night. The fact of their having re-
turned to the city becoming known to the officers,
they Immediately commenced to search for them,
which resulted in the arrest Of Brett The OH
GERS have in their possession evidence that will
unmistaksbly iasten this crime upon them. They
will undoubtedly succeed in the arrest of Wood
and Bolton, in few days, when the community
will be relieved from further dspredations of these
men, in which they have so long been engaged.
