Victed in the Superior Court yesterday OF
the larceny of horse and sentenced to
hard labor in the States prison Tor
period of six years. During the holidays
he was seen by a Waterman on the wharf
to come out of u stable, leading a fine
animal belonging to Sam Siegler, local
furniture dealer. The horse was later
found running at large on the streets and
the charge of larceny was preferred by
the owner. Judge made no defence yes
terday and received the sentence of si1
years with the utmost indifference. He
said at the preliminary trial, that he
went in the stable and the horse followed
him out He later said he picked up a
rope in the stable and upon coming out
was surprised to find that horse was at
the other end of it. Fact is, Judge APP
peared all along to regard the larceny as
a big joke.
