HEBRON MAN ROBBED

Otto Gilson, of Hebron, took a truck load of hogs to the Chicago market last Saturday. His commission was paid in cash. Saturday night, three young unmasked bandits invaded the Gilson home posing as government officers looking for counterfeiters, and compelled young Mr. Gilson to open a safe and took about $200 in cash, watches, jewelry and a milk check. Before leaving the bandits bound the hands and feet of Mrs. Gilson and her son with tape. They also jerked the telephone from the wall. Neither Mrs. Gilson nor her son were mistreated by the bandits.
