the thief had been arrested there, with the
property in his possession. The Chief of
Police, upon the receipt of the despatch, on
Saturday night, stationed police officers
upon each of the roads leading from Elk
ton to Wilmington, and instructed them to
arrest all suspicious locking characters
/ The thief went cja the old turnpike over
Red Hill and arrived in Wilmington about
/ l 80 A. NJ, on Sunday morning, at which
time he was arrested near Hedgeville, a
! suburb of the afore mentioned place.
The thiet's name is Alfred Smith. He
formerly resided in Port Deposit, for
short time but left there about ten years
ago. In the Fall of 1876, lie was employed
by Mr.. Keaveny, of Port Deposit, who had
the contract for excavating the new chan
mel under the iron bridge for the Phiadel.

over Big Elk creek, when he suddenly and
mystel ously disappeared from here, and at
the same time valuable horse belonging
to his employer also disappeared.
Sheriff Boulder and the owner of the
stolen property went to Wilmington, ON
Sunday night, and returned to Elkton, on
Monday, with the thief and the stolen
property, the former being quite anxious
to get out of Delaware as soon as possible,
he no doubt having a wholesome dread of
the pillory and the whipping post.
He was taken before Squire Foard, who

hearing to day, at 10 A. NJ.
Within the last few years quite large
number of horses and some cattle have
been stolen from persons living in the
vicinity of Elkton, and other parts of the
county. 1t is believed that the enterprising
and audacious rascal that has been engaged
in this thieving has been caught at last,
and that the nefarous business will stop.
On the 10th inst, Sheriff Boulder re-
ceived the following letter from Port De-
post, which will explain itself:
PORT DEPosIT, January -, 1873.

for stealing horse and wagon, at Elkton, on
Saturday night, we are Informed, is the
same one who stole our horse aud jaeger
from the front of our dwelling. in this
place, about four weeks since and which |
telegraphed you about, TO look out for
Monday four weeks ago. This man you
now have in Jail was seen near our house
the same evening the horse and wagon was
taken. | write this to say that we have
strong proof of him being the man and he
should not be released on any amount of
bail. NJ. F. JOHNSON.
