OFF FOR THE WAR
Was Patrick Thornton, But Sergeant
Black and an Officer Arrested
Him.

MIN.
Squire Sasse recently handed Sergeant
Black of the City Police force, IA warrant
for one Patrick Thornton, for assault and
battery on his father, who is old and
feeble.
Thornton illuded the police from April
10 until YESTERDAY, when he was located
at the First Regiment Armony just after
he had enlisted. Sergeant Black and
Officer Ralston waited at the corner OF
Twelfth and Orange streets, and when
Thornton came out they arrested him.
He was peaceful enough until Sergeant
McGinnis came running out and ordered
the officers to release him, which they
refused to do until they had taken their
prisoner to the squire to ask his advice
and opinion.
Immediately Thornton began applying
vile names and hurting epithets OF dis
respectful nature at Sergeant Black. This
enraged the officer who threw him down
and sat upon him until officer Raston
put the nippers on tie prisoner.
They took Thornton to the squire's
Office where it was deemed best to re-
lease him as he was to leave today.
Thornton has been arrested on several
different occasions, but has always swung
clear. On one occasion he was arrested
with several others Tor larceny and was
cleared because the Italian whom he
was said to have robbed was afraid to
recognize him as he knew thornton was
acquainted with some damaging facts
concerning his business. Thornton
made the assault on April 10Th. this
Npar
