Robbery

Two weeks sine Mr. Winant came very near being robbed, as he went from his market in town, to his home. He jumped into the yard of Mr. Kinsman and escaped.

On Saturday night as a Mr. Hamlin went home from town, some one robbed him of his money and gold watch, not over half mile from town.

This gang should be brought to the knowledge of our people, and we hope our authorities will double their vigilance, until they are known and punished.
