rracticed is for two men to get OH the

other man and swings him down over the
side of the car in front of the door, Ho
breaks the seal, swings in the Car. dumps
the goods out and then is drawn Wy the
way he came, the train moving all the
time. Sometimes he is let down hy a
rope fastened to the running board.

| tanks and stopping places along the
road. He has a secret code Of strange
