Wonderful Memory of a Horse.
Elberton (Ga.) Star. •?’ a . lawyer of Danville, 111., is m this city on a peculiar mission. He came to recover an only family horse that was stolen from him on Dec. 21,1860, and which he has followed over one thousand miles. The thief that stole the horse carried it to Indianapolis and sold it to Some horse dealers. They sold it to some Atlanta stock dealers, who shipped it to this city. A gentleman from Mr. Hill’s home, who was visiting in the city, saw the horse and recognized it, and at once notified the owner. Mr. Hill came to see about the much-.beloved animal. On his arrival he was informed that his horse was in the stables of Hill & Walker, and that he would have to prove beyond a doubt the identity of it before he could have it. With some other gentlem Mr. Hill proceeded to the stable. When he walked into the stall the horse neighed and pranced, and when Mr. Hill held out his hand the horse licked it with seemingly as much passion as ever one ..person kissed another. The gentlemen present were astounded at the instant recognition of the master by the faithful old family horse after a full year s absence. The gentleman who had possession of the horse told Mr. Hill to take it, remarking: “You need not identify the horse; he has identified you. I would hate to be a murderer and own that horse. I might run on him some day, and could never conceal my identity.” The horse will be shipped to Danville and Mr. Hill will follow him.
