It is reported that some one tried to butcher one of Walter Myer's hogs last week, out in the woods. Walter and George Copple were out hunting and happened to run across the hog, and the former on looking the matter up found that one of his hogs were missing, and that one proved to be his. The parties were not seen, but they are pretty well satisfied who the parties are. We suggest to them if they haven't got any meat, to beg it and not try to get it in that manner. It will be the best in the outcome.December 20, 1894
