DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY
A N11u Knhhrh nr A18 nm

From the lafayette {Ind.} Journal, Sept. l3.1
Ono Of the most daring and successful high
way robberies that VIC have ever been called
upon to record, was perpetrnted In this city
on Tuesday night, BY which Cnptain Webb,
late of the Fottieth Indiana, was relieved Of
e., eco in grcenbncEs and Government bonds.
Captain Webb lives near Stockwcll, in this
county, and WAS on his way 10 Illinois to
purchase land. Previous to leaving home on
Tuesday morning, he had made himself q
belt to wear around his body, into which he
placed bis money.
The whole amount, twepty-eight Thousand
cnvelops. SO thnt 1t could be equally distttb-
uted around bis body. That sum comprised
every dollar he was worth In the world. lie
says he was not aware that living sonl
knew that he had the money with him. He
was In the city portion Of the day, and be-
tween nine and ten O'Clock started alone for
the Wabash depot to take the train West,
which leaves between ten and eleven. While
passing along the walk. beside the rail-
road trnck, about half way be-
tween Main and Ferry streets, four
men sprang from behind some freight
cars standing on the side track One Of
them put handkerchief over his mouth and
around his neck, another grasped his arms
from behind and drew him into the shadow,
while the others rifled his person, taking bis
belt and contents, and every thing else OF val
ue about him. ue had small memorandum
the Government bonds ID his belt, which
was also taken, 80 that he has no means Of
stopping their negotiation or payment. Al
ter the villains had completed their Job they
took 10 their heels and he saw no more Of
them,
