Feb. 13, 1932Prospects seemed bright
today for seizing two banditswho attempted to blow a safein the Arthur Seefluth garageat Dunham Hill in the Town ofMuskego. A Smith and Wes-son .45 caliber army revolver,several bullets, a flashlightand a black hat, size 7-1/2, anda glove were found by Mr.Seefluth behind his garageyesterday. They are believedto have been dropped by oneof the bandits in his attemptto escape the firing of Williamand Arthur Seefluth.
The revolver had been firedsix times and all cartridgeswere empty.
It is thought that one of thebandits, who is believed tohave been wounded, for hewas seen to fall and then getup and escape, can be tracedby the hat and glove if not bythe other articles.
