 Some forty years ago the body of a fine young horse was found fastened to tree by halter near the new road, a short cut from the old Prov1- dence turnpike to Bkonk. The horse had evidently been left there when the thick woods were full of leaves, as 1t was not far from the road. Several had heard a horse neigh in that df- rection during the late summer, but had thought it was one that the Frank lin brothers had in their pasture near, and cold weatehr had come before there was any smell from the carcass How long the poor creature suffered before death came will never be known. but it had eaten every twig and bit of bark that it could reach. A good saddle and bridle were found carefully hidden nearby. There has never been any trace found of where 1t came from or by whom it was left. Was a horse stolen from a distant state left until it was safe to remove it. and did something go wrong, or did a criminal ride until the horse had to be left and he hid it to turn the officers from his track? 1t is mYs- tery that has never been solved, ana few are left who remember it.
