Much Thieving Going
On In Audubon County

--------

Thieves are getting very active
in Audubon County, in all direc-
tions. In Audubon, the Best Tailor
Shop was robbed of its cash register
which held $12 in money and
about $30 in checks. No clue has
been found. Several tires and cas-
ings have been taken from cars and
chicken coops have been visited.
Frank Bamsey is missing twenty-
four head of hogs which all indica-
tions point to robbery.

Much chicken thieving and tire
robberies are still taking place in
this place according to reports.
No punishment is great enough for
such culprits. "Thou shalt not
steal" is one of our orders which
everyone will have to answer to
when the Judgement Day comes.
