LOST - A BAY MARE
Source: Greencastle Banner 1 April 1857 p 3
Lost – a Bay Mare – 7 or 8 years old, 15 hands high, shod all around with steel-toed shoes – does not work well when first put in. I hired her on the 10th of this month to a man who stated that he wished to go to Rockville and that he would be back in three days. He was about 5’5” or 5’6” high. Anyone bringing her to me shall receive $20 for the trouble; and any Editor copying this notice by the means of which I may get my mare shall receive $5. Any information by letter or otherwise will be liberally paid for --- James Ingle, Greencastle, Ind.
