John H. Mimms, Reporter. On Wednesday, January 1, the case of State vs. Fogg, for horse stealing was taken up. This case was tried at December term, 1901, resulting in a verdict of guilty.

It was taken to supreme court on exceptions and a petition for new trial on the ground of newly discovered evidence and a new trial granted. The evidence was wholly circum stantial. The State's attorney claim ed fron the evidence that in June 1896 the respondent stole a bay mare of Charles Cowan from a pasture in Hart ford and took her to Mendon where he swapped her with one James Pat ten for an old gray horse. James Pat-tea identified tbe respondent, as did John Harriman and his son, as one of the men who swapped off tne bay mare. The respondent took the stand and denied any knowledge of the theft, giving evidence that he could Dot have been in Mendon at that time; that Miller was living near the pasture wbere the bay mare was kept and dis-aDDeared one Sunday morning and did not reappear until the following Tuesday, wben tne old wmte norse appeared also, and was claimed to be owned by Miller and that he had bought the old horse of Miller.
