Animal Taken from Pittsford Woman
Found In Plymouth.

II Is believed tnat the person who
took the animal became frightened
and left II where the owner could get
II safely.
The horse turned up one morning
in the barn yard of a farmer In Ply.
mouth a good many miles from Mrs,
jerks house, having been placed in
the yard during the night. II showed
fresh marks OF harness so that
there Is no probability that the ami
NAL wandered away. There Is some
suspicion as who the thief was but as
no damage was done no attempts will
be made to prosecute.
