The Thief Also Sold a Stolen Bicycle for $ 1.50 - He is Still at Large but May Not be so Long.
__________
John Wagner, of Northfield, had his horse stolen yesterday. He tied the horse on W. Washington st. opposite the American house.
When he came to go home it was gone.
He notified the police and sheriff. A short time later a telephone message was received from Ypsilanti saying a young man was trying to sell a horse and buggy there for $10.
Mr. Wagner went down to Ypsilanti and recovered his horse.
The same young man is reported to have stolen a bicycle and sold it for $1.50.
Marshal Gerstner found the party who bought did not wish to give it up until he received his money back.
The owner proposes taking legal steps to recover his wheel.
No arrest has been made as yet, but one may follow.
