Saline's Sweeney Todd?

Sylvan township resident August Gates had had enough. He was convinced that Saline butcher Joseph Schmid was stealing his cows. All the time he'd spent feeding his cattle, sheltering them, hoping--hoping!--to make enough money from them to eke through another winter--this was too much. He lodged a formal complaint with the authorities.

And then he disappeared.

"The case was a peculiar one, in that the complaining witness could not be found or anyone who knows anything about him, although a number of persons talked with him before and at the time he made the complaint."

Schmid was discharged.

This is a story that might be worth looking into. Did the man ever reappear? Was there more to the story then is told in the account? A little mystery.

I am looking into it as we speak--I found one other vaguely related article last night but need more info, and am about to head to Halle. I too want to find out what happened, for a story in next week's annarbor.com.

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at here. There is such a thing, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.

For several years , I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I make 2G daily, and I started with funny 500 bucks.
Right now, I managed to catch a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my web site to get additional info.
