the animal, until last Monday, when i'll this city he
h"hcll her atar OFT She was harnessed to a wagon
BELONGING to Leonard Harvey of Swanvllc The
claimant embarrassed the animal, took her i'll tow
and drove off As the shades of eyenin" fell Ilar
yry who had made his advent SO gaIy was seen
hauling his wagon ont Of town, while his wife
trudged along on foot toward Northport. Harvey
SAYS that week AFRO he traded horses with Isaac
jackson Of Northport, whittier he went, claimed
and took his original animal and went home, He
came to Belfast next day when jackson obtaining
IA writ OF repevin, sent deputy sheriff Norton to
recover the horse, which he did. Harvey for the
second time found himself horseless. Norton now
attempted to adjust matters according to the Cos
pei OF Samuel. He called upon Piper and with his
| usual persuasyeness induced him to give up the
original animal, which was returned to Harvey
| The was thus brought back to the starting
| point each one had his own animal, and was sat
