TELLS WHERE To| FIND RIG HE TOOK Horse Thief Writes Note to the Police Chief and Stolen An-. imal Is Recovered. Major < harles Vittur. proprietor of Vittur’s livery stables, today regained possession of a fine horse and buggy which had been missing since Saturday. He got the rig back by following in structions in a mysterious note re ceived by Police Chief Beavers from the horse thief. This note, which came to the chief written on a dirty piece of paper- in a scrawling hand and inclosed in a tele gram envelope, read: "Tell the livery stable man on Ma rietta street he can get his horse and buggy if he will go to a point one mile above Ndrctoss. He will find it in the "nods, tied to a tree, right behind ( a church. I'm drunk.” There was no signature. The charac ter of the almost illegible writing in dicated that the writer knew what he was talking about when he said he was I "drunk.'' Chief Beavers turned the note over] to Major Vittur, and the liveryman at once hurried to Norcross. He went to . the point indicated, and there, behind a little country church, tied to a tree, "as his horse and buggy. The writer of the note was gone. The thief called at Vittur's stables Saturday morning and rented the horse and buggy, giving his name as "Scott.” and explaining that he wanted to drive ' to Ben Hill. When lie failed to return at the appointed time. 9 search was s started, but nothing was heard from t the horse and buggy until the arrival of | the note.
