Law-Breakers Loose In County Pranksters had quite a time of it in the south end of the county the past week. Two in¬ cidents which i ndicate that malicious mischief Ls on some¬ one’s agenda took place Sunday afternoon and M;nday night. In Rising Fawn, Burton Ke- nimer’s s'ore awning was rip¬ ped and torn with a knife sometime Monday night while the town slept. He has offered a, twenty-five dollar reward for information leading to the arrest of the person or persons involved in damaging his pro¬ per y. No one has claimed the reward so far. While Cicero Forester and his family were at the singing at the Cloverdale Church Sunday, someone took the back porch screen loose, climbed in and went through the house, look¬ ing through papers, closets, bu¬ reaus and cedar chests. Evi¬ dently the prowler got quite angry, for “he kicked out the front window screen before leaving the house. Nothing has been reported missing although two watches were lying on the bedroom dresser at the time of Mr. Forester engaged the of a lawyer and he has made known the' fact that he now has fingerprints of the prowler. Certainly the mischief-makers the county, whoever they be, feel very bold, since instances similar to mentioned above have) reported the past few From evidence left be¬ they will probably be ap¬ in the near future brought to justice. and Personals Mrs. S.
