George Bruce victim of robbery

On Sunday morning last, about three o'clock, as George Bruce, the well-known Ellon Carrier, was coming to Aberdeen, he was stopped about three quarters of a mile beyond the Bridge of Don, by two men, who, after ordering him out of his cart and demanding his purse, rifled his pockets of the money they contained, between 30s. and 40s. in silver, and then took a bag of meal and four cheeses, all which they immediately carried off. - They were stout men, rather above the middle size, wore round hats, and long or great coats, and spoke the Aberdeen dialect.
