JOHN MGINN IS ROBBED

In a letter written by William A. Gilmore to a friend in Nome, he tells about an escapade in which John Me Ginn and George Max Estorly are the heroes. The portion of the letter dealing with the robbery is as follows:
 "A few nights before left, Johnny McGinn and George NJ. Esterly, of Cordova, were out at the CleamOnt roadhouse near the Pre5idio, with others and four auto bandits came in and held the place up. They wore masks and it was as good as a circus to hear Esterly and McGinn tell how it happened. Esterly thought it a joke, but the bandits soon convinced him and he stuck his hands at least eight feet in the air while the bandit raked S250 out of him. McGinn lost $25 and a valuable fob.
 "John told the fellow to hurry up with the job as the place closed in five minutes and it was too late to go anywhere else for a drink. One patron edged out of the room to the phone and called the police. As the four bandits left, the police auto ar rived and in the duel one robber was killed and a police corporal mortally wounded. He since died. The others escaped."-Ex.
