and burglarlzed early Saturday night.
The home Of Frank q, Sessions at II
German street was also broken into.
but no booty was secured there. The
neighborhood Of Hammond Heights q
quiet residential section Of the city
near Peat Meadow, was thrown into a
ferment Of excitement when the news
of the two breaks and the amount e
booty taken from the Maynard home-
stead became known.
The burglar or burglars as ii is inn
possible TO decide just how many there
were, did not seem to be in a great
hurry but went through the Maynard
house and pilfered belongings from
both floors Considerable valuable
property, which might just as wen
have been taken, was left behind.
While it is hard Go get an exact knowi-
edge of the value of the property sto-
len, it is estimated TO be in the nelgh-
borhood Of $l00.
The police were notified when enc
! Maynards discovered their loss yestef-
