been in the employ Of Mr. Frank Fowler,
of this county, hired OF Mr.. Harry

ness, and on the same day hired a
horse from Mr.. W. l.. Stole, Jr. The
buggy, not being returned TO Mr.. Har-
desty at the time agreed upon, he be-
gan to investigate the matter, and dis
covered that Wilson had sold the buggy
for SIG to a Mr.. Gaynor, living near
Wickliffe in this county, had returned
to Mr. Stole the horse he hired from
him, and, hiring another horse and buggy
from Mr.. Stole. had left the county, the

mans Ferry, was arrested a few days
ago upon the charge Of obtaining from
the Huber Manufacturing Company, Of
Ohio, a threshng-machine valued at
1915, by pretending TO own house and
lot, and giving a deed Of trust thereon to
secure the payment of said amount, while

who heard the case, sent Longerbeam to
the grand jury, but admitted him to bail.
