A Mr.. Bjerstadt. of Trimbelle,
while on his way to town last Satur'
day with load of wood was preached
by couple of unprincipled horsl
traders who had strayed this way in
search of victims, and after some bar.
tering was persuaded to exchange
horses for the purpose of trial, with
the agreement of meeting again in
the village and if all were suited a
trade was to be consumated if satisfac-
tory terms could be made. But the
professionals didn't appear in due
time, and kilograms were sent to the
various stations hereabouts which re.
suited in their arrest at Prescott Sat-
urday evening. Sheriff Lord brought
them back to this place on Sunday,
and on Monday they were taken before

storing to Mr.. Bjerstadt his horses,
they claiming it to be fair trade,
and the evidence not being strong
enough to make case against them.
