Considerable inquiry and a trip to town finally located the top and seat in George Lindsay's garden. Mr.

Lindsay heard some one talking, whipping a team and driving around in that direction and raising the duce generally. In the morning he found the seat and buggy top near his cultivator. The cultivator had seemingly been been driven into, and was so badly broken he had to come to town for repairs.

Two of the gates were found closed, and one of them which had been wide open for weeks was nearly shut.
