Mrs Emma Lunde Foils Hold Up. $2000 Fur Coat Safe
Chicago, March 22. Wealthy Mrs Emma Lunde prevented a trio of auto bandits from stealing her fur coat after a theater outing. While one robber covered the chauffeur and another took the coat, the third pressed a gun against Mrs Susan Lunde. She chatted to deflect them, saved the ring valued at $5,000, and convinced them to leave after pocketing $3 from the chauffeur. The three fled, leaving the car and any further theft behind.
