MORE STOLEN GOODS. Yesterday morning
We spoke of a quantity of stolen goods recov-
cred by Marshal Bridges and his deputies, but
that was but small affair compared to the
haul made yesterday. They got, among other
things, several pieces of new silver ware, sew
eral revolvers, dress goods, shawls, blankets
shoes, flannel, &C.. SC. Some of these goods
were stolen several weeks ago at Cumberland
Center, and some of them the other night at
East Deering. The collection contains goods
for every break made within tie last three
months. Marshal Bridges has shown much
skill as detective in getting hold Of these
goods, and has been ably seconded by Dep
Sterling and Chase and officer Gribben. When
few more arrests are made, we shall be able
to give fuller account of where these goods
were found.
Officer Gribben arrested young man named
Bennett yesterday for breaking and entering
Weston's tea store on Middle street GA the 19t h
of last February He made full confession,
but the goods have been sold and the money
spent.
