Bound for the Pen.

Sheriff Gillidett, of Harrison county,
passed through the city yesterday morning,
en- route for Jefferson City with Sylvester
q. Roach; who was sentenced to imprisoD-
ment in the peni;eutiary for term OF two
years and ten menths for malicious killing
of stock. 1t seems that Roach married a
Miss Garrett, few years ago, but they
could not live peacefully together. His
wife's mother induced her to leave Roach,
and in spirit of revenge, that individual
stole three horses belonging to Mrs. Garrett
and two from her son, and, stalking them to
the woods, killed one with carpenters
adze and injured another SO badly it was
killed to end its suffering; third was left
tied in the woods 10 siarye, while the re-
naming two escaped. Roach was csptur-
ed, and the grand jury foupd two irdict-
ments against him. one for grand larceny
and one for malicious killing. He was &C.
quilted on the first count but found guilty
on the second. The prisoner is young
man and until convicted of this crime, was
we'll respected in the community in which
he resided.
