which was increased by a fortunate in
vastment in bonds which President
Hunter of a Lawrenceburg bank, made
for her. Recently she sold these bonds
and put the cash proceeds of them i'm
the Central Trust and Safe Deposit
company ON Fourth street in this city.
Desiring to have the money reinvested
she drew it from her box in the safe de-
post company. She put it in three rolls,
one of 90, 600, in rather small bills, ii
of 1900, mostly in 800 bills, and one
of about $500. These rolls she put i'm O
black satin hand satchel with q leather
bottom and went on Fourth street to
catch a 5 o'clock train at the Central
depot. At Fourth street and Central
avenue in a throng of people some one
came behind her, seized her satchel,
jerked it of her arm, pushed her vio-
iently forward, and escaped in the
crowd and darkness without leaving q
clue behind.
