Local Case Heard
About Old Clock
COURT IS TO DETERMINE OWN.
ERSHIP OF ANTIQUE BOUGHT
HERE BY JOHN RAHM, JR.
The

A jury was selected on Monday
morning to determine the a mershin
of a grandfather’s clock, vilued at
$175, which was owned by M. B.
Wittle, of Elizabethtown, a dealer
in antiques, who sold the clock to
John Rahm, of this place.
Wittle testified he had sold the
clock to Rahm on January 22, 1927,
last, in Elizabethtown for $175.
Rahm, he alleged, gave a check that
came back marked “insufficient
funds.” The clock was in Rahm’s
barber shop, which he was operat-
ing for Mr. Reardon. Rahm has
since left the community and his
whereabouts are unknown. A writ
of replevin was issued for the clock
The defendant testified he has
the clock in his possession. Ie had
given the money to Rahm, which
had been borrowed at Lancaster,
after Rahm had given his first check
which was no good. Reardon loaned
the money to Rahm which was for
the clock only and it had becn , de-
posited in a Mount Joy bank on a
joint account. The $175 was taken
out by Rahm but Wittle never re-
ceived it, it was alleged.
The jury returned a verdict in
favor of the plaintiff for $175.00.

Thieves Again Enter
MASHED LOCK ON SAFE AND
FORCED ROLL TOP DESK—
ALL DOORS SECURELY
LOCKED
Another attempt was made to rob
the Marietta street school building
last night but the robbers secured
nothing for their trouble.
When Janitor Harry W. Keller
went to the directors’ room this
morning he found that robbers had
been there some time during the
night and while they did not succeed
in getting anything, they certainly
incurred considerable damage to
school property.
Two axes, one of which they
broke the handle, a 2-ft. pinch bar
and a mattock, were brought up
from the cellar and were the tools
the rascals worked with. The com-
bination lock was completely knock-
ed off the safe but they were un-
able to open it. A vroll-top desk
was forced and damaged but noth-
ing of value is kept there since the
robbery about a year ago.
Last evening when the
left, he securely locked all
janitor
doors
ed this morning. This is conclusive
evidence that the thieves had keys
to the building.
The matter is now being investi-
gated and it is more than likely
that the “job” was committed by
persons very familiar with the
building.
