One of the saddest events which has
happened in the town of Putney within
the memory of the oldest inhabitant was
the mysterious disappearance, a few nights
since, of Hubs two beautiful Brahma
ROSTERS. They were specially valuable
birds, having cost their owner about $50,
and to have them ruthlessly torn from a
good home, when they were surrounded
by every comfort and luxury, and cast upon
the tender mercies of cold and heartless
world, is enough to incite any kind-hearted
person to make determined efforts to rescue
them from the murderous clutches Of the
miscreant who was base enough to swipe
them. Here is case for our police force
