A BOLD HOLD-UP Occured Near Geneva-*-Masked Men Jump From Ford and Stop Mr. Hiatt MADE HIM UNDRESS But Failed to Find Large Sum He Received From Selling Load of Hogs — i The story of a bold hold-up which occurred west of Geneva a sow evenings ago has Just been reported. A young man named Gerald Hiatt took a load of hogs to Geneva, sold them and received a check; for several hundred dollars. He placed the money in a watch pocket und went home, dIJ Ids feeding and then started for Pennville where his wife was visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ensley. He had gone but a short ways from home when lie noticed a Ford car behind him which drove slow when he did and turned on the “gas” when he hit it up. After they had traveled thuswise several miles the Ford passed him a hundred feet, turned crosswise in the road and stored. Two masked men each with a revolver in hand, jumped out and demanded that young Hiatt get out of his car. He did so and a gun was jabbed against each side and a demand made for his money. He denied having any but the men said they saw him draw It. He still denied having the money and invited a search. The men took off nearly all his clothes, his shoes and stockings and made careful hunt but failed to locate the roll. They took a fifty-cent piece he had in his trouser pocket and finally drove off. Hiatt was somewhat frightened but realizes he was rather lucky and has learned a good lesson. It is safe to say he will be more careful hereafter with his cash. There is no clue to the offenders.
