to Dexter. and about mile outside the
village unhitched the horse from the
carriage and turned it into a field. tying
the horse to a tree by the bride. For a
number of days the people along the
road had noticed a horse grazing in the
field but thought nothing of it as the
owner of the field is a liveryman in the
village. This morning, however some
one mentioned the fact of the horse be
ing there and the owner went out and
found strange horse. The carrige was
found beside the field in some bushes
together with the harness. The outfit
