A cast stone-type garden statue of Saint Fiacre was reported stolen from the backyard of a home here between December 22 and January 1.

The statue depicts the patron saint of gardeners/gardening and dates to about 1900‱925. It measures about 36 inches tall and its surface is well-aged and weathered; no paint, but with much mustard colored lichen from its many years standing in New England gardens.

Anyone with any information on the statue is asked to contact Officer Thomas Mix at the Wakefield, N.H., police department at 603-522-3232.
