The Terror of Dry Creek Pleads Guilty
to Horse Stealing.

The Terror of Dry Creek Pleads Guilty
to Horse Stealing.
A long, lean, lank, yellow haired, sallow-
complexioned youth of twenty-one years
stood up in the Superior Court yesterday
when Judge Van Fleet called the name of
John Kessler. The charge against the
prisoner was grand larceny. his crime con-
sisting of the theft of horse belonging to
Charles Quiggle a farmer residing in Dry
Creek Township.
The circumstances connected with the
crime we're fully related in the RECORD
UNION at the time. KessIer is the youth
who, five years ago, shot and killed his
father because the latter had punished him.
The family were at that time living across
the linein Amador county. Kessler served
a little over three years in San Quentin,
and on his discharge therefrom went to the
neighborhood of Dry Greek, in this county,
where he was well known, and for the past
year and half has led a nomadic life in
that locality, living off the fatted calves of
the farmers and generally making himself
terror to the people, who felt that their
lives and property were not safe while the
half-savage youth was at large.
Finally he stole valuable horse from
Charles Quiggle, who pursued and captured
him with the aid of Deputy Sheriff Miller
of Amador.
When arraigned in Court yesterday
Kessler pleaded guilty, and had nothing to
urge in extenuation of his crime except
the very thin excuse that he wanted TO
visit relative in Alpine county, and con-
cluded to ride Quiggle's horse there and
then send the animal back. He said that
if given an opportunity to do so he would
leave the State.
Assistant District Attorney Bruner re-
lated the circumstances of the case, as de-
yeloped at KeSslers examination before
the committing magistrate. He also states
to the Court that he had received petition
from the residents of the neighborhood in
which Kessler had lived, and where he
had made himself so obnoxious, to the
effect that he had bad character-that he
was thief and murderer, and dangerous
person to be at large-and asking that he
be given the fullest punishment possible.
The petition was numerously signed.
Judge Van Fleet said the law would not
permit him to take cogniZance of any such
petition in proceedings of that character.
He then questioned Kessler further con-
corning his operations, and concluded by
stating that he would give Kessler an op-
portunity TO leave the State at an early day.
He then sentenced him to Imprisonment
at San Quentin for term of five years.
The residents of Dry Creek Township
will no doubt keep themselves posted as to
Kessler's career, and when he again leaves
the State Prison they will see that he does
not locate in their neighborhood.
