The proprietor of the hotel not knowing the circumstances of the affair, nor when the party who tied the horse in shed, might take the animal away, it was allowed to stand till morning, -when it was unhitched and fed. The owner of the horse becoming somewhat alarmed as to the whereabouts of his property, at once went to the neighbor's . to whose house the truuk was to have been taken, and upon -finding that Mr. Bell had not arrived there he then set put in search of his horse and buggy. They were traced to near Hensalt then to Exeter, where his property was secured, upon the payment of expenses.
