The people of Highland Township (Defiance County) are going to take heroic measures to get rid of the thieves who have been committing countless depredation in that locality for weeks past and have, call for a meeting to organize a vigilance committee.
For weeks past thieves have been carrying away chickens and turkeys by the wagon load and have robbed clothing lines in every directions. So boldly has this work been carried on that it is not even safe to leave a rag of any kind hanging over night.
The farmers have been goaded to to desperation by their losses and they are going to break up the gang of robbers that have been plaguing them, no matter what cost them.
Some fun can be looked for in that direction, because the people are thoroughly aroused and mean business.
