bile parked. A colored man signaled
for him to stop and asked for an in
ner tube.
Before Hart could answer, another
colored man stepped onto the running
board and covered Hart with a re-
volver. Hart was ordered to get into
the rear seat. The colored men drove
TO the Link Belt Company's plant on
W. Michigan st. Then they tossed
out a sample case Hart had, robbed
him of some checks and $2.4o and
forced him to get out. He went to
Lemons residence.
The automobile was found deserted
