(News and Courier, 2nd.) c
Seventeen hundred dollars were c
taken from the southern Express of
Company car on the Southern Rail
way, near Fifty-eight, last night at
about 7 o'clock. The loss was thein
rasult of a daring hold up of the two
messengers in the car by an unknown
masked white man, who not only of
fected the robbery, but made good
his escane. The deed was an ex
ceedingly nervy one and goes to show tb
that even staid old South Carolina is ge
keeping up with the procession, and m
can have a "hold-up" as well as any roc
other of the civilized and enlightened at
parts of the country. The news of wi
the robbery was flashed to Chailes- mn
ton from Reeveaville, the next sta- ol
tion, and it was of such a sensational CI
nature that it spread throughout the R
city in an incredibly short time. The we
idea bf a train robbery in South Caro- nc
lina furnis!-ed too dainty a morsel of th
gossip to be kept secret and by the cel
time the ti-ain arrived in the city the wi
fact was generally known. tri
A reporter for The News and Cou- ls
rior went to the Southern Express of
office, on Hasell street, as soon as the of
news reached the city. There the fei
news of the theft was confirmed, but ga
no particulars could be learned, be- th
cause Superintendent Pinckney was
at the depot to meet the messengers, ei1
who were due in a few minutes. The mi
Reporter took a seat and waited the th<
arrival of the messengers. Very soon on
the big express wagon lumbered up an
to the door, and Messengers Ramsey ti-i
and Rhodes, carrying a great hig i-e- wi
peating rifle, walked into the office. ml
Superintendent Pinckney came in in TI
a few minutes. The messengers wi
looked so formidable with their great ha
gun that the Reporter thought there as
intist have been a mistake, or that at BI
least a dozen men effected the rob- ag
bery if any had been committed. th<
But facts secured later developed the kn
fact that the robber had gotten the r-u:
drop on rhe messengers and they the
very sensibly "gave up" to keep from Cs
