Hie son, Al, rode it in and stayed for church, and when he came out to go home, his horse was like the Irishman’s fixe, when he went to put bis hand on the horse it wasn’t there. He was gone and they cidn’t know where he was. When he got home the horse was not there. They got word from Adrian of a horse that filled the discription. So Mose Prather went over to eee the horse and ascertained the facts {n the case, and It proved to be the horse, but did not learn how it got there, Charles Timmons was putting in a load of flour Monday morning.
