Poultry Dealer Robbed at Gunpoint by Disguised Men
John H. Hess, a Martinsburg poultry dealer, was held up at Third Mountain west of the city on Saturday afternoon and robbed of 50 dollars. He said the robbers resembled negroes but white-hand blotches suggested white men who had blackened their skin. The men emerged from underbrush and trained shotguns on Hess until he drove away.
