£3OOO JEWEL ROBBERY
Jewellery said to be valued at about £.3000 was stolen by thieves who broke into the home of Mrs. Alexandrina IJendle, of Westminster, a few weeks ago. T I went out in the afternoon for about two hours and on returning home 1 found my bedroom in a state of disorder," said Mrs. Rendle. " The lock of a wardrobe had been forced, apparently by a jemmy, and my jewellery was missing. Among the missing jewellery were a £IOOO diamond bracelet, a pearl necklace, a diamond necklace and brooches and rings. Ibe thieves apparently entered by way oi the front door after they had unlocked it. 1 am mystified as to where they got a key. L'liey walked along a con idor and into the bedroom without diiturbiiig my husband or the man or woman servant, although the flat iB a small one. 'ihen the thieves apparently talked out by the same route."
