The Greensborough Letter Robbery Case Unfolds
A registered letter in Greensborough Alabama containing 1950 in national bank notes disappeared en route to New York. Postmaster Charles W Hatch confessed after a federal detective exposed his scheme with clerk John Sanborn, revealing Hatch stole both 1950 and 540 earlier from a mail pouch. Sanborn faced trial but Hatch later admitted falsifying his innocence and agreed to repay funds.
