Payette Independent June 14, 1894
Payette Independent
Payette, Idaho

The editor of this paper left town Sunday to attend the K. of P. convention at 
Pocatello.  Contrary to the custom of most newspaper men he carried a grip with 
a change of clothing.  The grip also contained a box of cigars. Some of the 
boys went down to the depot to see him off and while Burt was engaged in 
conversation the grip disappeared around a corner; he discovered his loss and 
arrived on the scene just as the marshal and sheriff were lighting fresh cigars 
and attempting to look innocent.  Burt says it’s hard when the minions of the 
law conspire to rob a poor but honest newspaper man.
