Most Cfloot Believed Bonds And Securities

OAMPBELLVILLE. Ont. July 8 - (C?) - Close to $108,000 in- cluding $10,000 in cash and the balance in securities and bonds, was seized by three armed bari- dlts who held up the Bank of Nova Scotla. here this afternoon.

it was learned from a reliable source tonight.

Described by police as the "murderous type" the unmasked

thugs cleaned the money and sec- urities out of the bank's vault and

made their escape within five minutes. The gang, believed to be the

same group who carried out sim- ilar raids in Central and Western Ontario in recent weeks. fled in a car police said was stolen and which later was reported aband- oned off No. 6 Highway, several miles north of Clappisons Corn- ers. Police believe they may have switched vehicles.

The three men walked into the bank a. few minutes before 2:30 P. M. Manager Frank E. Quin- lan and Miss Annie Holmes, tel- ler and ledger-keeper, were alone ai. the time.

When Quiztlan was a little slow in obeying their command to go to the back of the room one of the robbers kicked him on the seat of the pants.

Police said it was doubtful l! much of the securities was negoti- able. Along with the bonds. they were obtalncd from the vault after the thugs forced Quinlan to open it. When he hesitated one of the bandits kicked him. bark- ing: “Move faster!" but Quinlan opened the vault only after the bandit. leader jammed a revolver in his ribs.
