find them had been in vain.
One day my father was expecting
some important mail. so he sent me
to the mail box. AS I was sauntering
toward the mail box a strange dog
ran into the timber. Having never
seen the dog I became inquisitive and
followed him into the woods. After
about an hours walk. the trail emerged
into a small clearing, where 1 saw SIX
men and four wagons.
The men were chopping down trees
and loading them on the wagons.
Immediately started home to tell my
father what had been seen, but as 1
was turning to go, the dog discovered
me and at once began to bark. The
men grabbed their guns, and ran in
my direction. They took me and bound
me hand and foot with ropes and threw
me out of the way on the ground.
After a few hours had passed my
father went out in search of me. He
went straight to the mail box and find
ing the mail still there, he examined
the tracks and finding no boys tracks,
he started back along the trail, finding
my tracks where I had entered the
woods.
He went home and got a horse and
a hound and started to search forne.
After he had travelled about thirty
minutes he came to a clearing where
there were fresh tracks. He knew
what the tracks were and Immediately
notified the sheriff, who organized
posse to capture the thieves.
The posse came to a cleared place
where they saw an old cabin and
several wagons loaded with loge. The
sheriff decided to wait until morning
and take them by surprise. so they
went back into the woods q little
farther.
In the meantime one of the log
thieves was hunting for some wood and
saw their fire. He at once Investigated
and heard the conversation between
my father and the sheriff about their
plans.
He notified his companions who i'm
mediately muffled their horses feet
and started for the saw mill. thirty
es down the valley. In the morn
ing the posse started for the cabin ana
to their surprise the wogons were gone.
Then they entered the cabin and to
their amazement found me tied to a
bed in the cabin.
They started in pursuit at once and
overlook the thieves about a mile from
the saw-mill.
The desperadoes were very much
surprised to have some horsemen SUI
round them and tell them to surrender
in the name of the law. After a little
pause they complied and were hustled
off to Jail to await their trial. Each of
them received a twenty year sentence
in the penitentiary which ended the log
stealing that had gone on for so long.
