DARING ROBBERY.—A robbery of a daring nature
was committed about half-past seven on Thurday night, at
the shop of Mr. Paterson, tailor and draper, Avery-row,
Bond-street. It appears that at the time above-named two
well-dressed men entered the shop and requested Mr. Pater-
son to show them some pieces of doeskin and black cloth.
Mr. Paterson showed his customers several pieces, but none
of them would suit their tastes. Mr. Paterson, to accom-
modate them, retired to the warehouse at the rear of the
shop for the purpose of getting some other pieces to show
them, and during his absence the fellows contrived to steal
about 16 yards of doeskin, 22 yards of black cloth, 15 yards
of alpaca, and several coats and trousers, with which they
got cl,.ar off, notwithstanding pursuit was immediately made
after them.
