A sheriff's posse is out on the trail
of Clyde Trimball, youth of about
eighteen who unfortunately has tax
en- liking for other peoples horses.
His first effort in that line was about
two weeks ago when he took horse
belonging to Jim Ford from a past
ure, and riding it to Lakin, there he
traded it for saddle. 1t was some
days before Mr.. Ford discovered his
loss and could get any clue. When
he did warrant was issued, but be-
fore it could be served the boy came
back and stole mare belonging to
George Sharp. The boy first went
north but afterwards turned south
and is making for the territory.
The boy was raised by Mr.. New
ton Brooks living in the northern
part of the county. He took him
from an orphan asylum when quite
young and gave him every advantage
that was possible, but there seemed
to be a bad streak in him. 1t is
said there is a warrant in the hands
of the sheriff of Grant county for
the boy for crime committed down
there.-Garden City Herald.
