Charles Protsnian an old man, almost disabled about TO years of age, is languishing in the county jail charged with grand larceny, anj unable to furnish bond in the sum of $300. Protsman is charged with stealing ive large hogs from Herbert Gibson i fanner residing ca-t oi this city, and selling them in Bourbon at about
half their value. Thursday morning
The tiieft was cleverly executed and would not have been discovered
had not Proitsman's actions aroused
suspicion, which resulted in his ar
rest. Gibson owns a herd of 32 hogs and probably would not have missed
the stolen ones for several days. The theft was made early in the morning,
and tin buyers at Bourbon, would not - have questioned the ownership
of the hogs. About 5:00 a. m. Thursday morning Protsman had reached a bridge on the road, a ny! wist of In woo J. He was driving- five nogs, which refused' to cross the bridge. Protsman walke .1 to a nearby farmhouse and asked the help of the tenant, Lmis Henderson. After telling Henderson hat his name was Doc Perry, an;! that he was driving the hogs to Bourbon to sell them, the latter remarket
that he didn't believe the hogs w:u!J
stand the 10 mile trip, and he questioned Protsman why he did not
drive the hogs to Plymouth Prots
man answered that he was oiT.'red

ho,gs were to be purchased by Chas.
Bates, at that town. Henderson cal
led Mrs. Bates over the telephone.
she said that they were not buying
on that day. These facrs increased
Henderson's suspicions. 1: i: he
hitched up his wagoa and drove
