Four miles from Columbia, ne says,
he was halted by four men, one leap

eled revolver, and he was struck on
the head. Two hypodermic injections
were administered soon after the jour-
ney began. Later, he added, he was
given white pills and fell into stu

After passing Augusta the party
stopped and a safe was "blown," Ha-
good says, tools being carried in the
car.
He was put out of the car at a cross

men had taken $500 from him. Ha-
hours along the road until he found
he was approaching Jacksonville.
He reached Jacksonville about 6
o'clock and found a policeman who
was a fellow member of a fraternal
order. This policeman procured food
for him, and other members of the or
der provided him with means of re-
turning to Columbia. Examined by
physicians here it was announced that
