Expert horse thief stalks Lackawanna Luzerne shows in city
A noted horse thief, wanted in Lackawanna county and parts of Luzerne, visited the city within five days. He swapped a fine horse into a local Ivory stable, then fled as discovery neared. He used the name Kocher here, with other names elsewhere. Earlier, over a week ago, he stole from a livery in a southern town, rented the horse as a traveling salesman, and did not return it. The animal was later traced to Scranton, then Moscow, then this city where it was kept at Fitspatrick's barn before the thief departed. The real owner identified the horse in Moscow. Parlor suits and a sales pitch accompanied the intrigue. DONNELLY, The Reliable Furniture Center. Oppenheimers Orchestra at Valley View Tuesday evening Aug 18. Reliable bridge work by Dr Moon. Cab service at your call. Clinton Bryden's livery. A Holden builder for artificial stone Walks, curbing, drives and all cement work, 409 Susquehanna avenue, West Pittston.
