L.W. Hanna Robbed Outside of Wilson, June 13, 1925

Richmond Type Salesman Is Held Up and Robbed

Wilson, June 12—L.W. Hanna, former linotype operator on the Wilson Times, now traveling agent for a Richmond type foundry, was held up and robbed of a large sum of money and some jewelry by four highwaymen one mile out from this city last night. The matter was reported to police, and they went to the scene but could not get no clue as to the perpetrators. A woman who saw on of the assailants hit Hanna on the head says she will be able to identify him if he is caught. Hanna was brought to a local hospital. The officers are still on the hunt.
