Inlade Home Of Charles
{. Tayntor Of Brooklyn.
Cover Members Of Family With
Guns and Steal The vaIuabIes.
Bind Wealthy Granite Man and Es.
cape With Rich Booty.

New York, Nov. 3.-With the ray of
a burglars dark lantern shining in
their eyes and two revoivers held by
masked men covering them, the five
members of the family of Charles E.
Tdyntor. a wealthy granite dealer, lay
In bed in the Tayntor home at Borough
park, Brooklyn for more than an hour
this morning, while third masked
burglar picked up $4,000 worth of
jewclry and silverware. Then the bur-
glars bound Mr.. Tayntor hand and foot
and escaped with their booty.
Mr.. Tayntor. who has number of
rich granite quarries in New England.
is tnown as a crack shot. 1t is be-
li-ve.i that the burglars knew this and
took no chances with him. The men
gained entrance to the house by break
ing q window on the ground floor. The
burglar who was ransacking the room
found a jewel case with two wedding
rings in it on a bureau and was about
to take them, when Mr.. Tayntor asked
him not to. The burglar replied that he
would take everything of value he
could find. Then one of the burglars
standing guard over the family spoke
up:
L
am married man and have some sem
timent about wedding rings" he said
The rings were left, but two toy
banks belonging to Charles and Harold.
the Tayntor boys, were broken and ri
fed of s17. The boys cried and were Or
dered to be quiet. When the room had
been completely searched, the third
robber went down stairs and piled up
the silverware He later returned and
commanded Mr.. Tayntor to give up a
$500 diamond ring he wore. The ring
would not come off, so one of the bur
glars grimly drew a jackknife and was
going to cut Mr.. TayntOr's finger off.
Mr.. TayntOr protested and asked per-
mission to go to the BATH room and
soak the ring off with soap and wa
ter. 1--WE will do that ourselves" said
the man. who appeared to be the lead
er of the trio. and he did forthwith.
After this the leader lifted Mr. Tayn-
tors pillow and found a revolver un-
der it. He laughed and dropped the
weapon into his pocket. Then the three
men produced rope and bound Mr..
Tayntor's hand and feet. They ordered
him not to make an outcry for Is min
utes. saying one of their number would
remain on guard that length of time.
Then they hurried away. The telephone
wires had been cut and an hour elapsed
before Mr.. Tayntor could inform the
police. He was able to give perfect
description of the three men, but this
will hardly be of any assistance, as
the burglars were all dressed alike
and wore masks. The burglars wore
black suits. black derby hats. kid
gloves and white masks. They had
woOlen "sneaks" over their shoes Mr..
Tayntor believes one of the men was
a Negro and the fact that the men
wore gloves would seem to indicate
this.
