Another dastardly act has been com.
mitted against the property of 5. J. VIII.
son & Son. 1t will be recalled that
few weeks ago that a spoke in the car
riage in front of this firms bazaar was
Whitfield; few nights ago two carriage
curtains were cut; the side curtain of
one, the back curtain of another. The
firm are almost certain they know the
parties, and they think the deed wac
done by two men, and Furthermore they
believe there are but two men in Milton
who would be guilty of such an heinous
offence. The firm will give S1oo for in
formation that will lead to the convic-
ton Of the parties. If another act of
the kind is committed, the public will
find out whom Mr.. Wilson thinks are
the parties. We think if Mr.. Wilson d
Son have the least knowledge that would
lead to the conviction of the parties they
should take action for miscreants who
would do such diabClical trick as this,
would not scruple to burn his property;
aud in doing this would endanger the
safety of the town. Mr.. Wilson owes
it not only to himself to ferret out these
rascals, but also to the public of which
he and his son are honored members.
