Chapman recognized the engineer's voice, and at once threw open the door, when the robbers covered him with their Winchesters and ordered a delivery of express packages into their hands, Chapman complied with their request, and gave them what packages were in sight. The robbers then ordered the engineer to get back on his engine and pull out. The whole affair was over in less than twenty minutes, not a shot being fired.
