Something More about the Horse Tn

1t turns out that Young, who was arrest
ed in Londonderry, last week Wednesday,
as recorded in The Phoenix, is an old
offender and inside of two years was re-
leased from DannemOra, n. Y, state
prison after quite long term for horse
stealing. He was arrested in Troy several
years ago by Detective Markham, and
from clues found, eight horses were after
ward found at point near Hancock, Mass,
all of which it was supposed were stolen
by Young. They were advertised and
owners for all appeared, identified the
horses and took them away. For stealing
these he was sent to Dannemora. Since
his release he has purchased a farm in
Chester although he has resided with a
brother ON the edge of Winhall. Young
has been taken from the county jail at
Bennington to the state prison at Wind
sor, as it was not considered safe to have
two such desperate characters as Young
and Sargent in Jail at the same time.

Editor of the Banner:-In your report
of the transactions at meeting of the
Village Trustees held August 7th, in my
absence, the following item appears:
"Voted that the bill of DIN Scott be dis
missed" which is all right except as to
the following points, viz: There was no
bill made by me against the village, nor
any such bill presented at that meeting.
never made any claim that the vii
lage. or its trustees, owed me any such
bill, nor do they owe me anything.
The report seems to be little mixed.
