Charlton, Aug. lit seems that the
burglaries which have been so frequent
In Charlton OF late are committed by
home talent. Last Thursday the home
of II. S. Ekleberry, in the north part
OF town, was broken into, and Mr.. Elk
leberry happened to awake and see the
rohber at work. He sprang out OF bed
and tried to catch the man, who made
a dash for the front window, which he
had left open and escaped. Mr.. Exile
berry followed in his night clothes. but
the thief got away. Mr.. Ekleberry
thought he had seen the man before
but could not remember his name. Yes
terday afternoon he met the man and
recognized him, and as the fellow has
bad record behind him. the police
think it liz very probable that he is the
one who has been committing so many
thefts lately.
