and well, for they effected their entrance
by tearing away the brick work next
the iron doors in such II manner AS to
allow Of their reaching in and turning
the fastening bar, and they escaped
with their bulky booty so etfectually
that no trace OF il or them has been
since discovered. They did moi fool
away their time trying to get into the

lying on top Of it apparently escaped
their observation. At any rate they did
not take it along.
