Robbers Saturday night broke into the Seaboard passenger station office and according to Mr. Earl Tuton, two tickets for Rockingham were taken. Entrance was made by breaking a window in the office.
The store of Mr. J.D. Barfield on Chestnut street was also entered Saturday night and $1.20 in money taken. A Chevrolet car was also stolen Saturday night, mention of which is made elsewhere in this issue.
A good many robberies have taken place in Lumberton recently and police are working overtime in an effort to catch the thieves.
