VIGILANCE COMMITTEE
STOPSCHICKEN STEALING
After Patient Watching for a Number
of Nights Clyde Heckert Shoe One
of the Bobbers While the Other Es
caped in the Darkness
Residents of tumbler's Heights, East
Steelton. after being bothered several
weeks with chicken thieves, finally or
ganized a vigilance committee and Wed
nesday caught and executed one of the
thieves, since which time their CCODS
have been unmolested.
When the depredations on the hen
coops were first noticed, the chickens
missing each night were only three or
four. Every night a different coop was
entered and some of the poultry taken.
Finally those who were the victims of
the midnight raids, got together and
decided on a concerted plan of action
to capture the thief or thieves.
Each night after this would find a
number of the chicken owners patrol
ing the back alleys armed with breech
loading anl pump shot guns. Their
vigilance was not rewarded until last
Wednesday night when Clyde Heckert,
residing at 2627 South Third street,
heard a commotion in one ol' his neigh
bor's pens and upon making an inves
tigation discovered a large Shepherd
dog and a smaller mongrel slaughtering
the ilock. The big dog was promptly
shot, but in the darkness the mongrel
got away, but since that time no hen
coops in that locality have been dis
turbed.
Of the poultry owners whose coops
are known to have been visited by the
dogs are the following: Frank Schiff
bauer, who lost 4; Harry Downs, TO.
John Kunkle, residing at the Cumbler
homestead, and other persons lost a
number each.
