    3. Indiana State Sentinel, October 10, 1883. CONFESSED Seymour, Ind., October 9-Billy McBride and John Fay, the two men arrested yesterday for burglarizing the post office and robbing Hon. A. P. Charles' residence, were taken before Justice R. F. Everhart last night for a preliminary hearing. McBride at once confessed his guilty, but Fay protested his innocence until the trial was commenced when he, too, made a clean breast and told just how the robberies were committed and where the stolen goods were concealed, all of which were found except Mr. Charles' jewelry which they said they sold to a man at Cincinnati for $600. They were recognized to the circuit court in bonds for $1,000 each.
