Considering the above date of 1877 the following was extracted from the Juniata Sentinel and Republican, Wednesday, August 14, 1878: DIED SHIVELY—On the 9" inst., at the home of his father, in Fermanagh township, John Shively, infant son of Philo and Martha Shively, aged 7 months. The funeral took place on Sabbath. The remains were entombed in Union Cemetery. (This entry is interesting because Philo and Martha have a son, John Abraham. Shively, who was born in 1850 and died in 1928.) The following was extracted from the Juniata Sentinel and Republican, Wednesday, May 12, 1897: Two wanders, a man and a woman, giving their names as Hugh and Mary McAlister, were lodged in jail about 1 a.m., on last Friday morning, on information made by S. C. Shively, who lives a short distance north of town. The nomads were charged with the theft of Shively’s buggy, robe and whip last fall on the night of the great Republican parade here at the county Capitol. While the McKinley banner was floating triumphantly in the evening breeze and bands of music were enlivening and strengthening the step of the hilarious political paraders, the couple with their booty were making the best time they could toward Liverpool, Perry county. When Shivery discovered his loss he took to the road and with the instinct of a detective, be found the trail of the tramp man and woman and gradually followed them to Liveapool where he found that they had traded the buggy for some kind of a wheeled conveyance, but he never overtook the man and woman. Gradually as the months rolled by, he thought less of the loss when, lo presto change, as if by magic he was informed last Thursday night that the wanderers had retumed to this section of the world. Ah! thought he, what game are they after now, and he hastily came to town and with the deputy sheriff hastened to Lost Creek Valley to arrest the party. He expected to find them at David Sieber's place about three miles north of this town. The couple had appeared at Mr. Sieber's house on Thursday evening and desired to lodge with him. They were known and as it did not suit to lodge them in the house, they were told that they could use the corn crib in which to sleep. The nomads grew suspicious. They found out that they were suspected of stealing Shivery's property and soon quietly left the premises. Meanwhile, someone had informed Shively, and he speedily secured a warrant and placed in the hands of the deputy sheriff, who hastened out the valley. Somewhere on the road between thisand Sieber's place, he came upon a group. Six horsemen sat upright like soldiers in their saddles around a man and woman in a cart to which was hitched a horse. The sheriff soon learned that the horsemen were a self constituted guard, and that the man and woman were then being taken care of til the officer should arrive. The officer escorted the couple to town, and they were taken before Squire Wilson in Patterson, where they waived a hearing and in default of bail were lodged in jail to answer at Court. The sheriff had the tramp’s outfit on his hands as an elephant, but fortunately found a purchaser in the person of A. T. Caveny and so ends the first chapter of the stealing of Shively's buggy, robe and whip. The final chapter of the stealing of L. C. Shively's buggy was recorded in the Juniata Sentinel and Republican, Wednesday, September 15, 1897: Frank McAlister was sentenced one year to the western penitentiary and fined $5, with cost of prosecution, and his wife Mary McAlister was sentenced to pay a fine of $1, costs of prosecution and 4 months and 5 days in county jail, counting from 6" of May, 1897, for the stealing of L. C. Shively's buggy and whip, on the night of the Republican parade last fall ‘The newspaper obituary for Theophilus O.
