WOMAN ROBBED
AND TORTURED
Forced TO Tell Where MoneyWas
After Husband Was Tied.

Media, Pa, Dec. l. - A horrible
crime was committed at Darlington,
Delaware county, about o'clock last
evening when two stalwart negroes
attacked and outraged Mrs. Annie
Litzenberg, about 60 years of age,
choked her and forced her to tell
where the money in the house was
kept, and robbed the house of 1902,
after having tied her husband, Edward
S. Litzenberg. in the barn. They then
made their escape and a search is be-
ing made throughout the country for
them. If they fall into other hands
than the police summary vengeance
may be meted out
After assaulting Mrs. Litbenberg
the negroes tied their victim hand and
foot and struck and choked her, ask
ing her where the money in the house
was kept. She refused to tell them
where the money was hidden, but be-
ing tortured finally admitted that it
was put away in a trunk on the second
floor. The negroes left her helpless
on the floor and went to the trunk to
secure the money.
