ROBBERY OF CHURCH, -SToSE.-
The brethren of the Second African
Church seem destined To i'll luck with their
place of worship. But a few weeks ago IT
was laid in ashes. Shortly afterwards they
laid n cornerstone, and on Saturday night
some thief, without u conscience, broke
down the partially Reconstructed wall, and
carried off the box enclosed in the stone.
The box contained sundry and various
articles and a good many Freedmcn's Bu-
reau papers. The value Of what was stolen
is placed at sums ranging from nine dollars
to nine hundred dollars. We are unable
TO ascertain the exact amount, but ii can
certainly be found between these two
figures. The thief was evidently present
al the laying OF the stone, for the job was
done as nicely as if he had laid it himself.
No clue to the robbery has yet been found.
