tached to a democrat wagon in the yard
alarmed by some one calling from the
street that his horse was leaving him. The
animal had backed out OF the yard and
headed up Plainfield street and went west
at a lively pace.
The gentleman upon whom the owner
was calling hitched UP his horse and,
with Mr.. Rossiter, started in pursuit.
