C. 0. THOMAS AGAIN IX TROUBLE.
With J. W. Xohle, of Tylersburg, He
Is Arrested for Stealing a Team
of Horses at Cook sharp.
Charles O. Thomas, of Clarion countv,
was arrested near Nebraska, Green town
ship, last Wednesday night, June 14th,
charged with stealing a team of horses
from 8. C. Agnew, the hotel keeper at
Cooksburg, Barnetl township. Not be
ing able to furnish bsil he Is now con
fined in the Forest county jail. Tbe
stolen team and outfit was found in pos
session of Thomas.
Jacob W. Noble, who lives on what
was formerly the Heck Smith farm, a
mile tbis side of Tylersburg, was arrest
ed Thursday night near his borne, under
the same charge and was released under
bail.
Tbe team is a nicely matched pair of
sorrel ponies four years old snd weigh
ing about 850 pounds each. With tbe
team tbe thief took a good top buggy,
harness, rubber spread, curry comb, two
bushels of oats, in fact the whole outfit
connected with the team, to the value
of $350. According to Mr. Agnew's story
be was working extra time on Tuesday
nigbt helping to load a flat boat and on
coming borne his wife mentioned hear
ing a noise at the barn. He investigated
and found tbe horses all right, it being
then a little after twelve o'clock. He
thinks the thief was concealed in the
barn and got away with the outfit shortly
after he bad gone to bed, as bis wife
beard another noise ut tbe barn. He
discovered bis loss about 5:30 Wednesday
morning and f)und the bailers In the
stable yard. lie telephoned bis Iobs to
all the surrounding towns and with bis
nephew, O. A. Lewis, a boy of IE years,
took op the trail. Tbey tracked the rig
to Scotch Hill, then to Leeper, where
Mr. Agnew's brother George Joined tbem
in the search. Tbe trail led over the
macadam road to Tylersburg, then to
Joseph Keverliue's near Crown, where
bis spring house wss robbed that morn
ing of honey and butter, which was found
n tbe buggy when it was taken from
Thomas. The trail led up to Robert
Hagerty's, back to James Tingley's, past
tbe old Haskell mill and by way of tbe
Hagen cburcb to Gollnza, where tbe rig
was seen by a resident, it being then
daylight. Tbe man driving tbe rig at
tbat time was not Thomas, but a large
man with a heavy mustache. The stolen
outfit was taken out tbe Gultonville road,
where two sons of C. S. Hoover saw and
described it. It was also seen by a num
ber of others. It Is supposed to bave
been taken down the Fox creek road to
Little Coon creek and then down to a
rendezvous on Hall ridge back of E. L.
DeWoody'a bouse, Just above Nebraska,
Tbe rig bad left tbe public road at tbe
stuns watering trough and the horses
forced to go up a bank so steep tbat noth
ing but a goat would be supposed to
climb it. It was In these woods and after
many twists and turns that tbe Agnews
finally ran tbe gang to cover just about
dark. Leaving Lewis, and Roy McCan
na, of Nebraska, guarding the publio
road, both tbe Agnews went up into the
woods and soon routed out three men
and tbe team. Two of these men, said by
Thomas to be David Trainor and Frank
Moyer, or Myers, started to run and were
called on to surrender. George Agnew
fired eight shots after tbem and thinks
he wounded Moyer, aa be was seen to
hold bis left side as be ran. Both men
escaped and no trace bas been found of
Ibem since. While this was going on
Thomas drove off with the rig, coming
out near DeWoody's barn and going up
tbe Kellettville road, Lewis and McC&n
na drove up behind blm and forced bim
to surrender at tbe point of a Winchester
rifle. He was unarmed. Sheriff S. R.
Maxwell was notified and went up and
brought Thomas to jail. The Agnew
party came to town and tbe owner made
Information against bim. At a bearing
Thursday afternoon before C. A. Randall,
J. P., Thomas plead not guilty, waived a
bearing and was held under ."00 bail
for bis appearance at September court.
Thomas Is sged 44 years. Hi Is a cripple
and goes about on crutches, having a tu
bercular trouble of the right hip. He
admits to serving three or four terms in
the penitentiary. His last sentence was
for stealing tbe team of Amos Sbotts, at
Tylersburg, five years ago. He drew a
long sentence for tbis crime, but was
pardoned March 15th on account of poor
health.
Jacob W. Noble, who is an uncle to
Thomas, was arrested Thursday night by
Sheriff Maxwell and Constable Charles
Clark, of tbe Boro, the information be
ing sworn to by S, C. Agnew. Noble
was brought to Jail the same nibt and
after a beariug Friday night before C. A.
Randall, J. P., was released under 500
bail for his appearance at the September
term of court. The chief witness against
him was Thomas, who told a story to the
effect that tbe stealing was plauued by
Noble aud Trainor at tbe tormer's borne,
Trainor stole tbe horses and Thomas' part
In the affair was to help him run them
out of the country. Thomas' story con
densed is as follows: He met Trainor
Tuesday forenoon In the woods near
Leeper and went over the plans for the
dealing. Went to Scotch Hill and back
to Noble's arriving there about 0 o'clock
in the evening. Talked over the plans
with bim and an hour or more later No
ble hitched a horse to a buggy and took
bim to a bridge on the road above On
