MAN AND BOY
CONFESS LONG
ROBBERY LIST
State Police Have Bandits
Who Terrorized Lam
caster County

Lancaster, Nov. 11.-People of
Lancaster county towns to-day
brcathed u sigh of relief after it be-
came known that William Brown,
80 years old, and Joseph Schurter,
16 years old, were being held for a
long series of robberies that have
terrorized communities in which the
raids were committed.
State police have disclosed two
signed confessions in which the pair
admitted having broken into post
offices, tapped safes and looted Of
fees in prominent business places.
Brown, an ex-convict, calmly re-
lated how the two had spent night
after night gathering loot, while
town officials were trying to trap
motor bandits" Scores of places
in all sections of the county were
faided, wagonloads of fruit were re-
moved from orchards and farm
houses were entered. In most cases
the men first stole revolvers and
worked armed. Towns raided, ac-
cording to the mems confession, are

The Last Robbery
While under suspicion for n week
the elimination of their depreda-
| tions came last week when forty
| bushels of corn were stolen from a
| farm along the New Holland turn
| pike, near State troops barracks. II
was discovered in u stable rented by
| Brown in the western end of the
! city. His arrest followed, and then
| he was accused of the other rob-
| berries.
| Brown, who has been following
| the huckstering business since he
was discharged from the penitenti.
ary, blames his failure to make suf-
| ficient funds for his crimes. II lost
a lot on watermelons and other
| things this summer, and I just
| thought would take another fins
at the old game. I just knew ]
would be caught. so did the kid,
| but we kept at it. All the time we
were at it we kept saying we're
| going to get caught"
That money was their sole object
| is apparent from what they stole
! Many times valuable jewelry was
within easy reach, also checks in
the mails they robbed. 1t was on a
basis of $40 a day that they worked
When the money was exhausted
! they started out for more.
