Robbers make Off with Ladies Coats, Silk Underwear from Mount Olive Shop, June 26, 1926

Store Robbers at Mount Olive Active

Mount Olive, June 25—the store of Mrs. Shaw McCullin, local dealer in ladies’ ready-to-wear, novelties, etc., was entered by thieves Wednesday night, who carried away some $300 to $400 worth of coats, silk underwear, hose, handkerchiefs, etc.

Entrance was made from the rear of the building by prizing out of place the bar that generally holds the doors closed. No clue as to the identity of the criminals has yet been discovered.
