An ~itinerant peddler was taken into
custody last Thursday night near York
by Sheriff James Taylor. He is sus-
pected of having left some poisoned
oats at the Canadian farm near Leeds
the day previous. Two of Mr.. Muir
phys horses, on his farm, died sud-
denly when fed from the bin where
the man is thought to have put the
oats. Two other horses became very
sick, but were attended by a veterin-
airy in time to save them. He had
been trying to trade the oats at other
farms but was refused. Whether am
criminal intent attaches to the act can
