BURGLARY AT NEWTOWN
DRAPERS’ SHOP RAIDED Some time during last week-end burglars raided the premises of Messrs. George and George, drapers, in Riddiford Street, Newtown, and succeeded In getting qway with materials and gootjs to the value of some hundreds of pounds. Some reticence is observed as to what actually occurred, but from such information as can be obtained it seems that access was secured by undermining a wall at the rear of the premises. It Is understood that enough stock is missing to require a couple of cars to take away. The premises are next to the Newtown School, and possibly the stolen goods were carried away by this route, as the raiders would be able to work quietly and get away in the shelter of the;-sehool to a side street
