I would have Bit :coffee2:

I wonder if it was ever Found, Making a fool out of the Nay Sayer :laughing7:

Someone should have at least Checked if the robbery happened.

jeff of pa,
Great question! . . I mean if the robbery even happened. . . if that was the last article written about it, perhaps someone did. I looked at a Shoshone town map and it looks to be a fairly small town, even today . . . if someone found out no robbery, whole town would know by the next day . . . same thing with finding it, or all split it . . like all the folks digging under the big W in movie "It's a Mad Mad World".
Sorry if you haven't seen it. An old comedy, dumb, but I liked it.
