ROBBING FREIGHT CARS
 COMES TO A CLIMAX
Continued from page l


 shells found would indicate their guns were 32 calibre automatics. They then went to the wounded man who lay on his side with a 32 cali bre H. 6 R. revolver in his hand. After telephoning Agent Finney for a doctor and constable, they made a further search for the other bandits.
 Upon being questioned Detective See stated that about three weeks ago, II cases weighing between $40 and 57O pounds each, containing quilts from Housatonic for a New York point, were taken. A few days later about $500 worth of merchan- disc was taken and it seemed from the condition of the boxes that the robbers sorted over the goods and took the most valuable. Last Tues day night another haul was made, resulting in the loss of about truck load of automobile tires. In June of last year a quantity of silk was stolen at the same place. Detective See produced a box of suspenders found a few feet from where Ga vanie was shot.
 Ralph J. Bailey stated that he was employed by the railroad company as special agent and corroborated De- tective Sees story.
 Gavanie was bound over to the next term of the superior court un- der $1,000 bonds. He was taken to Litchfeld and placed in the county jail Friday afternoon.
 Detective See has been busy rounding up railroad bandits all over the line. He succeeded in capturing Is at Danbury, who are now in the Bridgeport jail awaiting trial.

Rumblings Round

We are glad to be able to report
that the health of the people of this
community is good at this time.
The country is rapidly putting on
the wondrous beauty and verdure of
spring. Flowers are in bloom on the
hillsides and in the valleys. Peaches,
plums and pears are in full bloom,
and so far the damage to the fruit is
very slight. The prospects are that
we will have good crop of fruit.

Of the old home place. The grant to
the property was signed by President
James Monroe, and we are still here
doing what we can for the good OF the
community. We have not left it ike
our good old friend, Mr. Tunnel, who
we are proud TO claim as our lifelong
friend. 1t made us feel happy to
know that he was reading our rumb-
lings, and it did not make us think
any the less Of him because he "stood
up" for his community. However, we
think he made a bic mistake in run
ming off after the pot Of gold at the
end of the rainbow. Brother Tunnel
has been gone from US eight years,
and Rural Hill has done wonders in
that time. For instance, there are
now twenty-five white families living
from the north of the Jameson mill
road to Cross Church, a distance Of
approximately two miles, and most of
them own their own homes. There
are several other good things we
could tell Brother Tunnel, but we
would rather he would come to see us
at the next camp-meeting and we will
prove everything We have said and
then some. So come on, Brother Tun-
nell; it is not necessary for us to tell
you that we would be glad to see you,
and we feel sure you will also be glad
to see US and the wonderful things
we Rural Hill folks have done and
are doing. Your only regret win be
that you will wish you had remained
here and had helped to make the
Piney Grove community as good
section as Rural Hill And TALKING
about oil and gas-we are going to
find both oil and gas here, and not so
very far from Rural Hill either But
we do not want much said about this
right now as our company is working
quietly but cautiously and you need
not be surprised for us to tell you
about our oil in the next few months.
We want to heartily endorse Black
Gums letter in the Commercial last
week on what he had to say about
taxes. a good many years ago our
county was badly in debt. Our rate
of taxes was 40 mills or more and
our county warrants were selling way
below par. This was no "Carpet Bag"
rule, Col Richards, Of Columbus was
elected president of the board Of Sup
ervisors, with four other good men
from the beats of the county and in
four years they had paid this .county's
Indebtedness, reduced the rate from
40 to 10 mills; our county warrants
were worth par and the Treasurer of
the county had money on hand. Now
