Atter the failure to catch him on the bridge, Constable laundry, of Goderich, and Fritz Gemine hardh the latter on wheel, started down south on the lake shore road, and went as far as St. Joseph, in the hope of catching him. But they had evidently got ahead of the youth, for Gerninbarclt returned to town, and later in the day, hearing that the fel- low had been seen not far from here, again started out, and had the good fortune to overtake him. Attempting to capture the boy, the latter put whip to the horse, and Geminhardt followed until running into a sand heap, the latter was thrown from his wheel and had to discontimie pursuit. Report said that a couple of shots were ex- changed. The boy was captured later and taken to Goderich. The Goderich Signal says: A rather complicated case involving the ownership of a horse was tried in the Police Cotirt on Tuesday. The complainant was Wm. McGrrory, of Ashfield. and the defend- ant was his nephew, Harold McGrory, of Detroit. The younger 1VIcGrory took the horse from his uncle's farm on Wednesda,y and after an exciting chase was caught at Grand Bend and arrested by Constable Gundry on Sat- nrday morning.
