in a room off the kitchen. The others
were then seized. A 12-year-old boy and
an elder daughter were bound and gagged
and tied to a chair. The old man and his
wife were easily overpowered. Shonbrick
was ordered to point out the hiding place
of his money. He denied having any, but
one of the men told him if be repeated

they held him over the stove until pain
caused him to faint. Then they seized
Mrs. Shonbrick and threatened the daugh-

the house.
