The prisoners were then conveyed to the Tombs, To-
await the arrival Of requison from Gov. Clark pre-
vious to being conveyed to Boston for trial.
The officer states that the robbery took place on the
18th Of September last Immediately after which the
cused left the city and to New York The male
prisoner being asked by Captain Leonard why he had
his beard shaved off, said chat he thought he knew the
party who had committed the robbery, and as he was
not unlike him in appearance ard wore heavy beard
he thought 1t only proper in justice to himself divest
himself Of the immense amount of hair which covered
his face. Blank contracts, counterpart oil the ona
which johnson was compelled to sign, found in the
house where the occurrence took place. 1t win be
membered that the woman Connolly when examined
