A BOLD ACT, THIS.

Two mer with a two-horse team called at A. H. Williams in Lone- town, one day last week, and said George o. Sanford and Milo Osborne, who owned some hay at his barn which they purchased of A. H. Dia- mond before he sold his farm to MT Williams, had sent them for a load of it. MT Williams gave them the key and they went to the barn and put on load, getting part of the hay from MT Williams now, and drove away. After having been gone some time it was found out that neither MT Osborne or MT Sanford knew any thing about the men getting the hay and Mir Williams did not ask them their names, so that who get the hay is mystery. But one thing is certain; it was a bold game and the men were evidently stealing the hay. No clue of any kind has yet been found as to who took the hay.
