When Frank Waddell went to water
his horse last Saturday morning from
an old well on the farm of W. j. Red
KEY he found mysterious looking
box floating on top of the water which
on being drawn to the surface proved
to be the cover of an Edison phono-
graph. This proved link in a story
which has just been made public. On
the night of August 26, 1907, John
Cameron, of Bainbridge, had phouo-
graph stolen from his buggy that was
standing at the rack by W. j Red
keys store. The matter was kept
still at the time but watch was kept
on the suspected party. OF late Mr..
Cameron has been so certain that he
had It located that he went to the |
suspected party last Friday night and
accused him of the theft and gave
him the choice of either paying for
the machine returning 1t to a certain |
place before moring or an arrest. 1t
seems evident that the guilty one
thought to hide his guilt by dropping |
the machine in the we'll but the cover |
failed to sink and told the tale. The |
we'll was searched and the balance of |
the photograph found. Blood hounds
we're put on the trail and as the re-
suit Ova Wisecup was arrested and
the trial is being held today before
Squire T. M. Ferguson. Later Mr..
Wisecup was allowed to go free as
sufficient evidence could not be Sc
cured to convict him but public senti-
ment is very strong on the matter.
