WAS DRUGGED
AND ROBBED
Samuel Mcneil Tells of His Ex-
perienCe on the Outskirts Of
This City.

What is believed to be bold hold
up took place yesterday near the
McHose clay banks when Samuel Nc
Neil, son of "Gipsy SAM" was drug
ged and robbed while on his way
here from South Amboy. The robbers
secured about S5 in change, so it is
said.
Mr. McHose when questioned on
the telephone this morning, said that
young man appeared at his office
yesterday afternoon and acted as If
intoxicated. Mr.. McHose thought he
was and refused to let him spend the
night in the office. The fellow later
was taken to the Blume home near
Amusement Park, where he was un-
conscious for long time.
When he revived he said that while
walking to Perth Amboy he was held
up by two men and at the point of a
revolver, was forced to drink some
thing in the nature of drug. He does
not remember much else except that
he was carried for some distance.
"Gipsy Sam" camped near the old
Florida grove tract for some time. but
is spending this winter between South
Amboy and Sayreville. The young
mans mother and father visited him
at the Blume house today and he was
taken home.
