"Top Hatters"
Rickreall
of a dozen logical causes and
Hons Neufeld came to the Associated
station at Rickreall and asked that
someone accompany him, who knew
the community, to the place desig
nated. It was the W. C. Hill home
adjacent to the grade school. The
stranger led the party to Hill's gar
age and through a door to the back
where a tractor is housed. Behind
the tractor were two open suitcases,
containing clothing, Including suits,!
shoes, underwear and accessories. On
top of one open suitcase was an open
billfold and, In a conspicuous place,
a (100 bill. He ran through the con
tents of the well-filled billfold and
when Neufeld asked him "If it was
all there" he answered "Yes."
It was recalled that a man carry
ing two heavy suitcases and answer
ing the description of this person,
was seen hurrying north on the
highway from the bus station, look
ing over his shoulder. He started to
go into the driveway between the
Art Beaver residence and the Demp
sey garage. He said he hod thought
at first to hide his belongings and
change his suit In the Beaver's ga
rage, but changed his mind and
went on down the highway two more
houses.
He had changed into neat working
clothes and had gone to Art Collins
worth's and asked Mrs. Colllnsworth
for a room for the night. Upon being
told she had no rooms to let he left
there and later in the evening called
the sheriff's office from somewhere
in the neighborhood of McCoy,
The only recollection the Hill fam
ily has of seeing anyone on their
premises was that Mrs. Hill's moth
er thought she saw Mr. Hill go past
the window to the garage, but no
one came Into the house.
