| News-Arct* | 29 May 1944 | "The Daily News", Perth, WA, Australia; SILENT AFTER £19,000 LOSS SYDNEY, Mon — Eighty-year-old Alfred Bassett, retired property owner of Boundary Street, Clovelly, from whom £19,000 was stolen on Saturday night, could not be interviewed today. "It is no use trying to see him," his daughter, Mrs Collins, said. "If you try to go near him he'll bite your head off." Mrs Collins added that she did not know how long her father had been keeping the money in the suitcase under his bed. "It must have been there for a long time," she said, "but although my father lives with me he doesn't tell me all his business. He keeps to himself." The home from which the money was stolen is a small brick cottage with a few feet of lawn in front. Mrs. Collins said she thought the thief must have entered through a window while the family was having the evening meal at the rear of the house. For more than ten years Mr Bassett had crammed notes of from £100 to £5 denomination into a small suitcase under his bed, believing this to be as safe as a bank. [Note: This should be Mrs Connolly not Collins];Principal=Alfred Bassett6 |
