counter and went to the cash
register to change the dollar bill
the one man handed him.
"You better hand it over," the
one man who was holding a gun
beneath his coat, is reported to
have said to him. The two men,
Knittle said, backed him up to
the cooler, opened the door and
shoved him in, injuring his back
in putting him through the doox
Knittle picked up the meat hack
er in the cooler and tried to cut
his way out Over an hour later
the continued noise attracted the
attention of E. H. White, former
owner of the market, who lives
immediately back of the store.
White went to investigate and let
Mr. Knittle out The loaves of
bread were both left on tee coun
ter but all money and checks
