In some places there was much sale about how the "saner" Fourth was kept, but if one were to read of all the work of the hoodlums on early Monday morning, one would think Hampton was one of the "insane" places. It is not unusual to have gates taken off and hid, nor to hear of a man having his wagons, racks and other implements hauled away; but to have a dozen head of cattle turned loose, to eat grain, trample down gardens; burn up cocks of hay, turn water into a man's front hall, is something never heard of before, and people are wondering what will happen another year if the miscreants are allowed to go unpunished. The town reports show that more or less is paid each years for police services; we are wondering what the police were doing Monday morning when all these depredations were going on.
