A fellow appeared at Muscoda about a
month since, claiming to be, a Baptist
Preacher from Indiana; he of course as
sumed some name. He gave out appoint
ments to preach, wished to hold a series of
meetings, claimed to be a widower and
wished to marry; but his manners begat
suspicions on every hand. He was staying
with Billy Kendall at Pulaski; on the eve
ning of Friday last, some watches were
missing from a neighbor. The preacher
was suspected, and it was ascertained that
he had opened the window of his room in
the night, passed out and gone into the
neighbor’s house and stole the watches.—
His tracks from bis window to the house
betrayed him. A short search lead to the
discovery of the articles. He was arrested
and sent to lowa County Jail to await trial.
