asked OF MIR. Wood, his employer, the
advisability of following the action of
neighboring farmers by setting spring
gun for the detection md capture Of
sneak thieves who had made repeated
depredstions on spring and chicken

proved the plan, and practically ordered
1t by allowing 1t done. The gun was
lightly charged and aimed low, all the
occupants and persons about the place
being fully aware Of the presence of the
gun. On the morning ia question Mr..
Griswold forgot to unset the trap
