Sheriff Shirer Arrests Hank Granger, of Thayer.

Sheriff L. P. Shirer went up to the Kankakee river Thursday and returned this Friday morning with a prisoner, in the shape of “Hank” granger, the very extensively known ex-saloon keeper of Thayer, who is a hunter and acts as a guide in tbO duck hunting region of northern Newton and Jasper counties. A warrant was issued some days ago for Hank’s Arrest, on two charges, the first for hunting without a permit and the second for hunting after dark; the law making it a misdemeanor to shoot game between sun-down and sun-up. The first charge is for hunting on the land of the Northern Indiana Land Co., and the warrant was issued on complaint of C. D. Shook, the superintendent.
