BURGLARY AT SULLIVAN The Sullivan
Democrat says:
On Wednesday night last the store room Of
Messrs. Bridwel & Lucas, of this place, was
broken into, the perpetrators succeeding in taking
away with them over one thousand dollars in
money-three hundred of which was in gold Of
the amount stolen one hundred and fifty dollars
belonged to Mrs. Burge, near this place. which
had been sent to Der BY her husband who is
private in the army. She had deposited the
money in Mr. Bridwell's safe for safekeeping.
She is poor woman. with quite a number Of
children, and this loss to her will prove a heavy
one.
In an upper vault of the safe there was lying
package of several hundred dollars, bounty
money, collected by Mr. Michael MaIIott, Esq,
for the wives and children of deceased and dis
charged soldiers this the rascals overlooked
thinking. perhaps, that the haul they bad made
was all the money there was in the safe.
BY means of false KEYS the burglars entered
the front door. The money they took was in n
large iron patent safe They turned 1t over, hav-
ing the door part upward, and by their implements
bored into it hole which they filled with powder,
the explosion of which hurst the lock- The
manner in which it was done shows that it was
the work of skilled and experienced villains.
From the great weight of the safe, aud the posi-
ton in which il found in the morning, it is
manifest that several persons must have been
concerned. Up to this time no clue has been OBJ
tanned to their whereabouts.
