This notorious gang has operated
from Angus for several years, and 1t is
openly asserted that the outfit Is re-
sponsible for the big fire of five years
ago. They are too smooth to be caught
in their thieying, but ii Is believed that
they are interested in much of the
wholesale stealing that mas been going
ON in this vicinity. For months they
have had regular customers In Perry
for stolen goods. and 1t IS asserted thai
If they do not have on hand what is
wanted they will steal 1t. Piece goods
of all kinds a whole suit of clothes.
shoes and other articles have been sold
by them. but the officers have been I'M.
able to prove where they got them. An
effort will now be made to bind the
ones arrested over TO the grand Jury.
