Acknowledgement I'm the Act.

Isaac Brown, colored, who has been employ
ed for many years by Whitaker Bros, Of Bel
Air, was arrested last Saturday evening while
in the act or taking meat from the shop of
of Whitaker Bros. The arrest was made by
Sheriff Hughes at the instance of detective.
Browns employers say that he was the best
colored man they ever had employed, and
they were much surprised to know that he
was the cause of meat disappearing from the
establishment.
1t is supposed that Brown did the stealing at
theinstigation of other negroes. Small quanti-
ties of meat disappeared from time to time, and
after several weeks Of watching and attempt
ing to apprehend the thief, Whitaker Bros.
determined to solve the mystery, and employ
ed detective from Baltimore. Although he
was about town for several weeks, it was not
until last Saturday night that the thief was
caught Brown was In the act of carrying
away about So worth of meat. He is in Jail
awaiting trial at this term of Court. His ac-
completes are suspected, and more arrests
will likely follow in the near future.
