On the 4th of July the gentleman from Poland having the above name as nearly as the English alphabet dare render it, hired a rig of Liveryman De Mosh, of Vpsilanti. This rig Mr. Battleski drove to Burmingham, where he sold the buggy and harness, hired the horse pastured and himself to a farmer as a work hand. Sheriff Brenner tracked him to Burmingham, but he had disappeared, and for a while no clew was disco vered of him. A short time ago, however, Mr. Germán, who had taken the horse to pasture, received a letter from the Polander, dated at Holyoke, Mass., asking what he had done with the horse, and if he had sold it to forward the money to him at No. 157 Maple street, Holyoke. This clew Mr. Germán communicated to Sheriff Brenner, who notified officers at Holyoke to take care of him. In the meantime, however, an incident of exciting interest happened to Mr. Katontheroofski. Itappears that three years ago July 4th - the 4th of July seems to be quite a day for Mr. (pronounceit yourself) - on that day three years ago, this gentleman and a friend were celebrating American liberty, with the aid of revolvers and whiskey, when the unloaded revolver of one Polander went off and bored the bowels of his friend with a bullet, causing his death, whereupon the descendant of Stanislaus fled to the west. On his return east, after the horse stealing episode, he was recognized, arrested and taken to Rhode Island to answer for murder. The action did not "pan out," however, and he was released after examination and returned to Holyoke. Officers there then telegraphed Sheriff Brenner that his man, having gotten rid of his other engagements could now respond to an interview with the chief of the Washtenaw body-snatching force, and Wednesday last week Mr. Brenner started for Holyoke. He obtained his victim without difficulty or requisition, and arrived with him in Ann Arbor on Friday night.
