DAYLIGHT ROBBERY
OVER £4OO WORTH. ! HASTING’S LAW FIRM ROBBED. Per Press Association. HASTINGS, March 1. A daring daylight robbery of over £4OO worth, £35 of which is in currency, was perpetrated at the office of a firm of solicitors yesterday afternoon between one and two o’clock. A young leady was in charge of the office during the luncheon hour, and it would appear that the thief must have awaited an opportunity while the lady was occupied for a few moments in an adjoining room to enter the office, and get away with the cash box containing the money. There being no trace of the cash box the matter was immediately reported to the police. However, there were no further developments up to this afternoon. "•
