Heroic Riding Fails
To Round Up Bandits

The three bandits who robbed the
paymaster of Martel mills of Egan, Ga,
of about $500 in broad daylight Satur.
day morning about o'clock as he step
ped from a car near Hapeville, have at
least temporarily effected an escape, for
late Saturday night, in spite of vigorous
work OF the county police and several
deputies, no trace of the men could be
found.
Shortly after the holdup a posse of
county police and deputies reached the
scene of the robbery and were soon
sent flying on motor bikes and in cars
along all possible means oH egress from
Hapeville.
Long distance telephones were put
into service and the whole country side
asked to cooperate in apprehending the
thieves.
County Policemen Hanie. Hornsby and
Capes, in the belief that the men were
on the Macon road and led by reports
from persons passing who told of the
hurried flight of a small touring car
with three men in it towards Griffin
made the distance to Griffin in record
time, from there detouring around
through Fayetteville in hopes of catch
ing their game, but in spite of encour-
aging reports and after heroic riding
he three county officers returned to At
lanta late Saturday night empty handed
FOLLOWING them along the same route
were County Policemen Jordan and
Stovall, who with A. II. Boykin, the
paymaster who was robbed and brutally
slugged, were in a county car, hoping
to pick up the trail of the robbers.
Late Saturday night, owing to the in
ability of any of the men to apprehend
the highwaymen, Chief George MathiesOr
and Deputy Sheriff Plennie Miner who
made a thorough investigation of the
affair, expressed the opinion that the
auto bandits carried their loot in its
l'Original satchel to Atlanta.
When A. II. Boykin left the trolley
car at Lang avenue, near Hapeville, Sat
urday morning about 8 o'clock with
81 500 for the payroll in satchel which
he was carrying, a tall man in a heavy
coat stepped from the trolley also and
accompanied him up the street. AS they
walked up the street they approached a
car in which two men were sitting. One
of the men leaped to the ground, COW
cred the paymaster with a gun, dealt
him a severe blow behind the ear and
the man who was following from the
street car seized the grip containing the
money. All three men made their es-
cape in the car, which was a Ford.

it's rebuttai, when two men testified
that Pollard was connected with the st.
Louis strike of eighteen years ago, that
the state held this card to damage the
reputation of an honest man, knowing
that the distance to st. Louis was too
great to bring witnesses for him to At
lauta before the case went to the jury.
ATTACKS DYNAMITE EVIDENCE.
Mr.. Hewlett also attacked the two
witnesses produced in the Monday morn
ing's session who stated that they sold
dynamite, or found it. He characterized
their line of testimony as being very
flimsy and asked why it was that out
of the seventeen alleged confessed dyna-
miters, not one could be persuaded to
testify against the defendant Pollard.
When he charged Attorney Conyers di-
rectly with offering immunity 10 i. q.
Williams. confessed dynamiter, who ap-
peared on the stand in behalf of the
state last week, Mr.. Conyers arose and
objected vigorously, declaring that Will
liams himself had sworn on the stand
that no such thing had happened and
that Williams himself admitted never
seeing Conyers before the morning when
he came to the courthouse.
Judge Hill sustained Mr.. Conyers' OBJ
lection and directed Mr.. Hewlett to re-
frain from such remarks when there
was no evidence to allow him to con-
clude that Williams was being Offered
immunity for his testimony. Mr.. Hew-
lett closed his speech with personal
tribute to Pollard, declaring him to be
the most courageous and masterful man
in the courtroom. He made the com
parison of Christ being prosecuted as
one analogous to Pollards position.
