THIEF GETS $20 IN LOCAL HOUSE
DIVISION STREET PREMISES, OWNED BY MISS H. GRIFFITH RANSACKED
[The Welland-Port Colborne Evening Tribune, 14 December 1931]
Ransacking the entire house at 12 Division street, owned by Miss Helena Griffith, a man took away $20 and ran from the place and down Division street shortly after eight o’clock this morning. He was seen by a Mrs. Johnson just as she was on her way to the house to do some work there. Mrs. Johnson, however, according to Police Chief George T. Crowe of Welland, failed to notify police, and it was not until near a quarter to nine o’clock that city police were notified of the break-in, Mrs. Johnson apparently telling Miss Griffith who communicated with Police Officer Tom Wilson.
Officer Wilson investigated, and found rooms all over the house in disarray. Police are thoroughly investigating every angle of the affair.
