ADMITS ROBBING
EIGHT CHURCHES

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March S.-A
string of church robberies that have
mystified Nashville police for a week
was cleared up today by the confes-
sion of John Lightsinger, tailor, that
he was the robber. He admitted he
had robbed eight churches.
Among his booty was a piano, and
after he had sold it to a negro he had
to walk back two miles to the church
and stole the piano stool because the
negro insisted it was part of the bar
gan. He stole the baptismal suit OF
Rev. C. L. Skinner twice, taking it the
second time after its owner had re-
covered it from pawn shop.
