    2. >From The Morning Post ( London, England ), Tuesday, November 24, 1818; Issue 14928. On Wednesday last John MOORE, of Ley Hill Common, Chesham, Bucks, offered for sale to Mr. Thos. SIMMONDS, of Watford, Herts, 19 pair of plough-chains, harrow and plough-irons, when Mr. SIMMONDS having suspicions, detained the man and the property; since which three pair of the chains have been owned by Mr. CURTISS, Steward to T. T. DRAKE, Esq., as his master's property, and MOORE is committed to Aylesbury Gaol for trial. The other property remains to be owned. Great credit is due to Mr. SIMMONDS for his conduct, for it is much to be regretted that blacksmiths are in the habit of purchasing this kind of property. Immediately that it was discovered a part a part of the property was owned, Mr. John BAILEY, High Constable of Chesham despatched two active constables to search MOORE's premises, when a number of farming implements, sacks, etc. were found, which are in the constables' possession.
