THE BULLET PROOF ARMOUR
When the first attack subsided, the
outlaws were heard calling, "Come on,
you ---; the --- police can't do us any
harm." The armour in which each member
of the gang was clad was of a most sub-
stantial character. It was made of iron a
quarter of an inch thick, and consisted of
a long breast-plate, shoulder-plates, back
guard, and helmet.
