Article Text: Mansfield, Ohio, May 15.--Early this morning burglars entered the house of Mr. REED and stole $365. James BOTHWELL, a son-in-law of Mr. REED, heard a noise, and on going to investigate, discovered one of the robbers and knocked him down with a lamp, but the burglar made his escape and joined his confederates, when they left in an easterly direction. Marshal LEMON was notified and immediately started in pursuit, being joined by the Marshal of Lucas, Ohio. The burglars, four in number, were overtaken east of Lucas, when they showed fight, flourishing revolvers, billies, and knives, and fired several shots at the officers. Marshal LEMON returned the fire, shooting one of the robbers through the arm and another in the hip. They succeeded in arresting three and brought them here and lodged them in jail. The burglars had in their possession a complete kit of burglars tools of all kinds. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ OH-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
