The prize, dozen golf balls, was divided
as follows: Six to first, four to second
and two to third.
Louis Shepard of Ellithorpe and Wal
ter Brown of Orcuttville were before
Judge Parkess, Saturday, charged with
stealing rs pounds Of honey from Calvin
Smith. Attorney Danahey conducted the
prosecution. Both men pleaded guilty
and each was fined $5 and costs. Thew
settled with Mr.. Smith for 1926, so that it
cost the men about 1922 each for the sport,
The theft was committed last Wednesday
night, and MIR. Smith became aware of
his loss early Thursday morning. There
was evidence that the bees had been
smothered with smoke and there was no
trouble in following the trail of the honey
gatherers, as there were plenty of dead
bees along the line of march. The trail
led directly to the house of Henry Golf,
near the cemetery. A search warrant
was made out and was served by Officer
Sullivan. The honey was found on the
premises, but Mr.. Golf declared he knew
nothing Of its being there. He stated
that Shepard and Brown visited him early
Thursday morning. This put the officer
on the correct track and led to successful
prosecution of the case. AS the maxi
mum penalty for theft of this nature is
800 fine and six months in jail, it is
thought that the matter was settled quite
satisfactorily.
