Hundred Dollars, Stolen.


RONDOUT, N. Y, April IA bold
robbery. followed by murder and arson.
took place at stony Hollow. about four
miles from this city. this morning.
Mrs. Rose Duffy. aged eighty. lived
alone in n little shanty. and at an early
hour the house was discovered to be on
fire.
Neighbors rushed in and found the
Id woman lying on the floor with her
throat cut from ear to ear.
Owing to the flames II was with dif-
ficulty her body was taken out. She
had several hundred dollars In money
which she had saved and kept In the
house.
1t 10 thought some Italians cut her
throa'. stole the money and set the
shanty afire expecting to hide their
crime. The shanty stood in an out OF
the way place. back from the railroad
tracks.
At one time she had this money de-
posted In an Ulster County savings In
stitution. but when there was a run on
the bank before 1t was closed by the
State Banking Superintendent, a few
years ago, she drew out the money and
has since kept 1t in her home.

pick her up expecting to find her killed,
| she was discovered on the pilot of the
engine. on which she was thrown.
