and in falling suppose ! cut my hand on
the rails. The men secured only a sill
yer watch of not much value. 1 suppose
they thought 1 had money, but they were
mistaken"
II is evident that robbery was the mo-
tive for the crime. Capt. Whaey is known
as a man of wealth, and 1t is supposed his
ASSISTANTS thought he had just had a set
Element for his dock rents and was load
ed with money. They missed it this time
as Capt. Whaley said he left all his money
at home this morning but a few dollars
and his assailants did not get much be-
sides a cheap watch and charm.
The assault and robbery was on the low
er side of Bay street, and in a good place
for crimes of this character. Whaley is
lucky not to have been killed, as the blow
on his head was a terrific one.
