Train Thief Lost His Life for £8'
MRS. AGNES GIVEN SIMPSON, of York-street, Portman- square, W., who was attacked by a man in a train near Edinburgh and robbed of her handbag containing £8, was told that he had been found dead beside the line.
She said: "Poor devil. To think he lost his life for the sake of £81. If only he had asked me for money I should probably have given it to him."
The man who attacked her was Lance-Bombardier Nor- man Arthur Kingsmill, aged twenty-five, a native of London. Four months ago he was posted from the Royal Artillery to the 3rd Anti-Aircraft Division, Edinburgh, where he worked as a clerk.
He jumped from the train to avoid capture, and was found with Mrs.
H.K. Naval Simpson's handbar near him.
