 On reach ing the door of the vault Nevin said, It is no use for me to open the poor of the vault as there is q time lock on the safe and it can't be O eued by me or any one else" and one of the men then said; "You open the dor of the vault and take the co,nbinati n of the safe, we will chance the time lock" Nevin complied, and much to his surprise founc that tbe time lock, which was set at six n the evening not to open until seven in the morning, readily opened- The men then made Nevin stand back in the vault, and the man with the knife stood guard over him while the one who had the gun took the coia from the treasury and put it into sacks.

When the men had carried the coin out of the vault they left Nevin in side, locking the two iron doors up- on him. He shouted and beat upon the door of the vault with piece of board till he was heard by Jailor Breen, who gave the alarm. It took an hour to get Nevin out of the vault as they had to cut the hin ges off the iron doors to release him. The keys of the vault were found this morning in the yard of the court house where they had been thrown.
