BOLD OUTRAGE.
BURGLARS INVADE TWO DWELLING
HOUSES.
They Force the Occupants to Give Them
Money.

A very bold outrage-one OF the boldest
which has transpired in this vicinity
Cured in Cape Elizabeth, at Town House
Corner, about two miles from the CITY. during
Sunday night As far as we learn the particu-
lars they were as follows:
Mr.. William Plaisted Is farmer. about 10
years OF age, who resides with his sister, about
forty rods from Mariners store on the road
leading from the Corner to Westinghouse
hiil. The house is the ordinary story and a
nan farmhouse. Some time during the night
MISS Mary Plaisted was suddenly awakened
from her sleep by man standing at her bed
side, with lantern in one hand and weapon
OF some sort in the other. The mans face was
shaded by some kind OF mask, although what
kind could not be told owing to the sudden
shock the lady experienced. The man de-
manded all the money in the house, and said
II she didn't give it he would kill her. The
noise OF the discussion awoke Mr.. Plaisted
who is in delicate health. The brother and
sister told the burglar they had little or no
money in the house but he made them get up
and deliver over some twenty-one dollars
which Mr.. Plaisted kept in trunk, although
his money is kept in bank in the city and he
only retains little on hand for necessary pur-
poses.
As soon as she could recover sufficiently
from her fright, Miss Plaisted ran over to Mr..
John Patterson's, another farmer, who lived
short distance of ON the same road. Mr..
and Mrs. Patterson have no children and live
alone in house similar to that OF the Plais-
ted's. 1t was discovered that the burglar had
been here also. Mr.. Patterson is about IS
years old. The burglar had made Mr.. Patter-
on hand over some fifty dollars which he hap
pended to have in bis possession. Both Mr.
and Mrs. Patterson received terrible shock
from the outrage.
1t appears that the man gained entrance to
the houses by means Of a bit with which he
bored through the front doors. and then pulled
back the catches At Mr.. Plaisted's he left
behind his bitstock and lantern. 1t is thought
he must have had confederate who kept
watch outside.
It also appears that man entered Mr.. Sam
uel Gregory's, at Turner's Island, early in the
evening Mr.. Gregory returned from walk
and found man sitting in the sitting room.
The man coolly said "good evening" and lift
ing bundle by his side. walked out. Mr..
Gregory thought it merely a man who had
been walking, was tired and stepped into his
sitting-room for minute, to rest. After the
fellow had gone Mr. Gregory missed lot of
things, including some silver-plate. which was
probably contained in the mans bundle.
Some of the people think the burglaries
were planned and executed by the same man
who stole gold watch and other things from
Mr.. Daniel Sawyer, some time ago. Mr.. Saw
yer lives close by the Piaisteds and Pattersons,
aud as the burglary was undoubtedly perpe-
trated by some one well acquainted in the
Vicinity and he may have returned
Gregory's.
