Monday afternoon a man, rather
poorly l reused, who said his name
was J. 11. Ford, came to his place
and was looking nt n cooking stove.
Ho liked the stove nnd would take It
provided he could soil a horse, which
ho was expecting to do that after
noon. Ford said ho lived 12 miles
from Derby, In this county, nnd that
Ills homestead Joined that of Otis
Hubbard; that ho was welt acquaint
ed with Hubbard nnd ho hnd boon
sent to Wilson to get tho stove by
Hubbard.

Wilson Tuesday morning that J. W.
Smith had no account In that bank,
and Mr. Wilson at once put the mat

Mr. Wilson Is of the opinion that
there Is a mistake somewhere as to
Ford, but ho wants his $19 back or
tho check cashed. It is possible that
Ford is all right and that Smith Is
tno real culprit.
