DARING ROBBERY.
It is with regret, that we have to record another of those daring outrages which have of late been the disgrace of our city.
On Thursday night, about twelve o’clock, a gentleman who resides in Broughton Place was knocked down on his way home, in the lane which branches off from the east side of Elder Street,[1] and robbed of his watch and five pounds.
