The Hillsborough Recorder

Robbers Detected. On the 15th January last, Mr. P. Dickinson, of Knoxville, Tennessee, had his trunk cut from the Hillsboro' Stage, near this City, containing considerable money and other valuable articles. No clue to the robbery could be got, until within a day or two, since when, by the sagacious plans of Mr. James H. Murray, City Constable, the robbers have not only been detected, but most of the valuables recovered. Four free persons of colour, arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the robbery, have been examined, and fully committed for trial.
