THIEVES AT THE WORTHWHILE ToURNA.
MENT.-A Shawsville correspondent says:
1t appears that number of the light.fin-
gered fraternity thought to make profitable
the occasion of the tournament ut Norrisvlle,
on Thursday, 10Th inst, by appropriating
the contents of buggy belonging to MI
Thomas Harris, one of the successful knights
The articles were taken from the buggy
while MIR. Harris was engaged in dancing,
but MIR. William Roster haYing observed
rather suspicious movements on the part of
a man by the name of Frank Singleton, was
led to suspect him as soon as the articles
were missed and on Monday Mr.. Harris
having procured search warrant of Justice
Wright, the stolen articles, consisting of a
silver goblet, silver spoon, an umbrella and
satchel containing number of small articles,
were found in the house of Singleton, who
was arrested by Constable Rutledge, but
having procured ball. was released to appear
at the November session of court, when from
the nature of the facts presented we are led
to think somewhat plain case will be made
out against the party with whom the articles
were found.
A number of articles were missed by other
persons attending the tournament, but no
other arrests have rs yet been made.
