ceived from his father.
During one Of our chats he told
me that his father kept a big bank.
roll in his safe at home. and the only
reason he gave for it was that the
old man was getting cranky. I be.
came deeply interested in the story,
owing to the hard times that had
struck the firm Of Wooley & spengler,
and tried to get Temple to AZ limit
on the old mans pile. He couldn't
or wouldn't do 1t, and sent Andy up
to Dobbs Ferry to take a look ct the
Temple mansion, to find out what
sort Of a prospect there was for an
exchange Of the Temple bank-roll.
The house was far in the country and
about on the dividing line with Hast
ings. Andy came back with a report
that the game was as easy as the
kick OF goose, and the coin-box was
like finding it in the street. did not
exactly relish going back to old
tricks, but something had to be done,
and that was all there was about it.
The plan Of the house showed that it
was adapted for second.story work,
and there were only two men who
lived in it. One was my young friend
Temple and the other was the old
man. The other inmates were women:
two or three daughters and domes-
tic servants. Andy was not able to
get the location of the strong box,
SO as to know what tools could best
be used to open it.
1--WE picked out for our visit a very
stormy night, when We knew that
young Temple was in the city blow
Ing in his allowance. This left US
only the old man to deal with and the
women. We went up the river on an
early train as far as Yonkers and
there got carriage from a solid
friend Of mine who knew enough to
keep his mouth shut and ask no
questions. We reached the Temple
house before midnight. All the lights
were out and Andy went up pillar
on the back piazza to the roof and
fastened a rope ladder for future use.
We got into the house in about five
minutes. We went to the different
rooms on the second floor and found
old Temple alone in bed asleep.
There was no one in the adjoining
rooms, and I woke him up. made
things plain to him: It was simply to
give up the safe combination or lose
his life. He was badly scared. and
said that he would open the strong
box. He got up, shaking like leaf,
and took us to an Office off the dining
room. l made lights in several rooms
so that the light in the Office would
not attract attention. while Andy had
the old man working on the lock.
When l returned to the Office the old
man groaned suddenly, placed his
hand over his heart and fell heavily
against the safe door. He was I'M
conscious. and we carried him into
another room, opened the safe and
cleaned It out. We reached New
York before daylight with a big roll
of securities and $4,000 in money"

Andrew Temple in his home in Dobbs
Ferry was one Of those peculiar cases
that you will not meet more than once

Il reached the Temple mansion the
morning after the robbery, and the
first salute I got was that Andrew
Temple had been murdered by
thieves during the night. The family
physician was present to attend to
the women in the household, who
were suffering from severe shock, and
he informed me that Mr.. Temple had
been killed by a pistol wound in the
forehead. I looked at the dead man
and saw Just above the temple q small
