Robbery at Du Pont estate yields coins and jewels
Five masked burglars broke into the Du Pont home around midnight taking about $5,000 in cash and at least $50,000 in jewelry including a Grand Duke collection. They tied the family and servants, searched the study, and forced Mrs. Du Pont to open a jewel safe while threatening violence. The bandits spoke of “green” and left in a Du Pont Cadillac, later abandoning it nearby.
