In previous posts, Horse Thief Cave has been talked about and a picture of "how it looks now" was posted. I have personally visited the site and have been curious to learn more about how it came to be known by that name.
Recently, I was able to find and purchase a copy of "Dundy County Heritage", A Bicentennial Commemorative Edition by the Dundy County Extension Council. In the Foreword written by Anna L. (Gorthy) Benge, it states that the book was published in 1976.
One of the chapters is a story about Horse Thief Cave told by James Gorthy and written by his daughter Anna L. (Gorthy) Benge.
You can read the story in the History section of Genealogy Trails - Dundy County, Nebraska.
