NOT A HORSE Thief.
-
Col. Harry Frease Had to Do a
Heap of Explaining.
EXCITED WATERFORD MAN
Built Camp Fires on His Trail to Get
Back His Roam Mare and
Buggy. w..
EXCITED WATERFORD Man

They tell good story on Col. Harry
Frease, of Canton, who spent several
days back in the country the latter
part of last summer, working on the
Canton East Liverpool railroad sur
yey, says the East Liverpool Crisis.
During the early part of the work.
Col. Frease was particularly anxious
that his identity and his mission be
kept a profound secret. This was of
course, before the newspapers had
given a hint of what was happening.
On one occasion, Col. Frease went to
New Waterford and there hired a hors.
and carriage for the balance of the
week-thinking he would be less con-
spicuous driving out of New Waterford
than If he had engaged an East Liver
pool livery team. He promised the wo-
man who was in charge of the little
New Waterford stable in her husbands y
absence-that he would return with the
beast and the vehicle by Saturday
night o..
That was on Tuesday. Saturday
night came, and the stranger had not
arrived. Sunday he was tsill absent,
and the old man at New Waterford be-
came worried. He made inquiries
about the stranger who was driving
his roam horse and yellow buggy. The
outfit was a somewhat conspicuous
one and people had seen the stranger,
who did look sort o. desperate, in half
a dozen townships in the dead of night.
The New Waterford citizen became
wildly excited. Col. Frease had left
his card when he hired the rig, and It
was decided to call up the Frease firm
in Canton by telephone. Here the plot
thickened still more; for the steno-
grapher in the Canton Office had been
cautioned not to breathe a word of
Frease's secret mission, and when the
inquiry came by telephone she smiled
gravely that mo gentleman by that
name was in Columbiana county"
So the trail became hot, and the Off
GERS were notified. Somebody learned
that the rig had turned up In East Liv-
erpool; It was finally found at a local
livery stable. Frease had driven into
East Liverpool on Sunday night and
the horse to be driven back home Mon
day.
His description reached the East Liv-
erpool police on Monday morning, and
the liyeryman was instructed to hold
the horse and buggy. 1t took twelve
hours of explanation on the part of Col
Frease's associates In East Liverpool
to convince the New Waterford mar
that everything was all right.
