Two females hired a horse and buggy
at Woodward's livery stable one day
last week to drive to Soldier to attend
a dinner party, to return early in the
afternoon. They had not returned the
next morning and the telephone was
used and it was learned that they had
taken dinner at Punxsutawney instead
Of Soldier and had remained all night
at Anita, returning here in the after
noon, day later than time set for their
return. A warrant was issued for the
women and constable met them before
they got to the barn. One OF the
women parted with her gold watch to
get the matter settled. 1t was learned
that the women drove out Pleasant
avenue direct to Punxsy instead of to
Soldier. Too many people abuse livery
horses by hiring them to drive to a
certain place and then drive double the
distance they hired the rig for.
