Bloomington (Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana) Republican Progress, October 12, 1881, p. 3. A toney young colored man from Greencastle came down last week to Bloomington to get his spiritual strength renewed at camp meeting, and "have some fun with the boys." Accepting an invitation to go to the room of one Ed. Phillips, in Jack Payne's boarding house (a white man who was for a time porter at the Orchard House), he was relieved while asleep of his watch, revolver, vest and $20 in money. Jones is not accustomed to city ways, but two or three visits to Bloomington will learn him a trick or two. The marshal went to Orleans, expecting to drop on Phillips in that village, but so far he has not succeeded.
