Stop the Thief!

A man calling himself George
Thomas, stayed last Friday night with
Mr.. sam Baird and next morning sold
the mare he was riding to Charles
Campbell for sos. Mr.. H. A. Griffin,
living near Anthoston, Henderson
county, Ky, came along Sunday and
claimed and took the mare, she having
been stolen from him on the Thursday
night previous. Mr.. Griffin saw man
pass his place late Thursday evening
and thinks he was the thief. He
missed the animal Friday morning and
began a search and learned that some
one had crossed Green river at Rangers
Landing Thursday night. He got a
young man, Mr.. Will Normant, to accom-
pany him and they followed on i'm this
direction, but never heard another
word after crossing the river until they
happened to meet Mr.. Sam Baird, who
told them where the mare was. Mr..
Campbell came to town Saturday
and paid the thief for the horse through
the bank. The thief gave his name as
Brown when he crossed the river.
The thief is described by those who
saw him here as follows: tf.t.i
DESCRIPTION.
About % years old, five feet ten
inches tall, weight about one hu ndred
and fifty pounds, face very fair, hair
dark, very peculiar colored eyes, scar In
center of forehead, dressed i'm light
clothes, short sacque coat, button shoes
with green cloth tops.
He arranged with w. T. King to gc
to Beaver Dam in his bus, but walked
out ahead Of the stages and was there
at train time. He bought no ticket
and 1t Is not known for certain that hs
left there on the train, or whether ht
went up or down the road, but the i'm.
preston prevails that he went up tn,
line. We trust he may be captured
and punished as he deserves.
