COWS TONGUES
ARE CUT OUT
Slayer Of Cattle Has Been Com
hitting 0utraGeS Fifteen
Years

CENTREv1LLE. Md. Sept. 3.--As-
sisted by private detective. farmers
OF near sudlersyiile. Queen Anne
county, are seeking clues to noe
turnal raider who, for IS years, has
been staying their cattle by cutting
out their tongues and leaving them
to bleed to death. The present
search was instituted when Philip
Graham found last week three of
his blooded COWS lying dead in
field, their tongues having been am
putated.
The carcasses of these COWS were
skinned and allowed to lie in the
field. but buzzards refused to touch
them, causing an opinion that the
kline had first been disabled with
poison But The new atrocities arous-
ed recollections Of similar deeds in
the past and the farmers have be-
come enraged. It Is believed that
the culprit is a negro residing near
Murdock's Corner, who once had a
quarrel with a nearby farmer and
has continued at intervals, to vent
his spleen in this way
Fifteen years ago James II. farrell,
tenant Of the Joe Smith farm found
one of his best COWS with its tongue
cut out This created a sensation
and futile efforts were made to To-
cate the guilty one Just as the neigh
borhood had begun to forget the
outrage, w H. Lewis found one of
his own COWS maltreated in the same
manner. Six years ago, d. +. Cod
win, also of near Murdock's Corner,
found a COW minus its tongue and
the excitement was renewed Far
mers Of that vicinity exerted every
possible effort to locate the cowardly
nghtraider, but without avail
Again four years ago, Oscar Pleas
ant found a favorite driving horse
badly cut and slashed with a knife.
Though desperately wounded the
horse recovered and its maltreater
was never discovered. Since then.
until last week. the miscreant has
bided his time, but his last outrage
has been the worst of all. Mr.. Gra-
ham Immediately obtained assistance
from Baltimore to ferret out the
guilty person. The negro under sus-
picion is being closely watched and
it is hoped that a definite clue to
his guilt will be Obtained soon.
