Friday morning when the proprietors
of the Rollins Durham hardware store
came to work they found things looking
a bit strange, and after making some In
vestigatiors discovered that they had
had visitors during the previous night.
and that moreover these visitors had
helped themselves to some of the articles
in the store. They had gained an en-
trance through the office window with
the aid of a ladder. and had broken the
window In order to unlock it. Among
the articles missing from the store were
all the revolvers which they had in the
store at the time. some ammunition, a
few flashlights. hunting knives, jack
knives. razors, and last. but not least,
whole case of Ingersoll watches. From
the nature Of the articles taken it is
believed that the robbery was committed
by boys or young men. but at yet up to
late hour in the afternoon nothing had
been learned concerning the identity of
the thieves.
