On Monday (court- day. young man
rode into town on a fair looking grey
mare and offered the animal for sale. MI.
VI. L. Grove purchased tie mare for $40.
The fellow then sold the bride for ten
cents and the saddle for fifty cents. These
small sums, far below the value of the
mare and other articles, and the evident
anxiety Of the fellow to sell at once, con-
vinced Mr.. Peter L. Hoshour, for many
years one of the best officers and detec
tives this county has ever had, that there
was something wrong and he took the
young man, who seemed decidedly simple,
in charge. Mr.. Steigle, of Harrisonburg.
who happened to sec the horse knew at
once that it belonged to Mr. Harvey
Fnzwater, of Brooks Gap, Rockingham
county, who had refused SlOl for it only
a wee k or two before. Mr. Steigle went
before Mayor Grabill and swore ont the
warrant aud when the thief was brought
before the Mayor he made a iull confess
sion and gave his name as John Lantz OF
Lertz, and claimed to be from both Rock
ingham county and Pendleton county,

the Rockingham officials notified, and on
Wednesday morning Sheriff Lam, Of
Harrisonburg, came down and took tie
prisoner back OH the next train.
