some SIS from the safe. In his haste
he took the iron vault from the in

the money stolen, contained valuable
papers that can not be of possible use
to anyone but Mr.. Pettyiohn. The
theory is that the burglar took the
vault to some convenient place, broke
It open and left it after securing the
money The vault, as yet, has not
been found, but Mr. Pettyjohn is max
ing diligent search for it, as the
papers are very valuable and he de
