thought to be the fellow who stole a fine
team from W. N. Tedford of Newport on

have evidence sufficient to prove his con-
nection with other crimes committed in
this county. Much of the evidence against
Butler was secured through a man who,
when accused of being implicated in the
theft himself Indignantly denied the charge
and proceeded to tell the sheriff who the
thief was and where he could be found.

coming here year ago with woman
giving the name of Holmes, whom Butler
claimed was his cousin.
