A Fight for Life and Cash
The folly of keeping considerable
sums of money in the house is again
shown in the case of Mr. Clayton
Phelps, a well-to-do farmer who has
long considered his money safe in his
own keeping.
Doubtless some watchful and dis-
honest individual discovered that he
paid his bills by cash instead of by
cheque through a regular banking in-
stitution; and as Mr. Phelps' home is
situated on one side by itself, as he
is somewhat deaf and lives alone with
his sister, it all looked like an easy
place to rob.
