The Daily Dispatch: October 20, 1863., [Electronic resource], A touching scene. (search)
Stealing Fresh Meat.
--On Friday night last the slaughter-house of Samuel Schwartz was entered and a large quantity of the choicest cuts were taken from several fine cattle which had been slaughtered and dressed ready for market on Saturday morning. The thief was evidently an epicure, as only the sirloins and favorite roasting parts of the animals were taken, while the rest was left untouched.
On Saturday suspicion was thrown upon a man named John Werst, who was arrested and will have a hearing before the Mayor this morning.
Coming down.
--For several days past Messrs. Wm. Wayne, Jr., and Samuel Schwartz, butchers in the Second Market, have been selling the finest beef exhibited for sixty and seventy-five cents per pound.
In a few days all the butchers will be required to lower their prices, but the people will doubtless remember with among them have voluntarily reduced the price and those who have done so from compulsion.
Stealing a cow.
--Two boys, named Jesse Heath and Theodorick Leach, were charged with stealing a cow from the yard of Mr. A. C. Moore, in Manchester, and offering her for sale.
Samuel Schwartz, a butcher in the Second Market, identified the accused as the boys who brought the cow to him for sale, demanding as their price $500. Not knowing there was anything wrong about the matter, he offered them $400, but before closing the bargain an officer took them under arrest.
The place from which the cow had been taken being beyond the jurisdiction of the Mayor, he directed that complaint should be made before a Magistrate of the county in which the theft had been committed, and the two boys were therefore placed in the hands of the constable of the town of Manchester.
