Stanly News-Herald
One hundred and twenty-five dollars in cold cash slipped away from Clint Moose, a local dairyman, at Oakboro Thursday morning. Mr. Moose was in a café and had the money out about some change. He laid it on the counter and went away, forgetting to pick it up. At Big Lick, two miles up the road, he missed his roll. As there was only one man in the café at the time he left the money on the counter, he felt sure he would be able to recover it. However, the man who was in the room at the time told Mr. Moose that he had not seen the cash. No one else seems to have seen it. However, Mr. Moose thinks he knows the person who got it, and still believes the man will return it to him. Otherwise he will no doubt start something with the fellow that may make the situation rather embarrassing.
