 As was surmised by The Republican last Sunday morning in the case of the Claycomb robbery, the horse an1 cart of Claycomb, taken by the high waymen, was found in town the next morning. The robbers had not taken the trouble to hitch the horse and it was found wandering along the road near Williscraft's foundry where it was last seen the night before There was one ludicrous incident connected with the robbery whdch has not been reported. At the time Claycomb was ordered to hold up his hands he was carrying a bucket of eggs. There was never before such a sudden upward movement In eggs. MT. Claycomb was next ordered to jump out of the cart. It is a difficult feat for one to jump with his hands above his head. It Is much more so when one of the hands is encumbered with a bucket containing two dozen eggs. MT. Caly- comb told the rpbber how he was handicapped. "All right" said the footpad, "I'll take the eggs" He d d so and set them down gently at the roadside where Mr. Claycomb at.er- ward found them.
