- Summary
- Pathe synopsis: A black-cloaked figure brandishing a couple of pistols rides down the main street, holds up a donkey-pulled mayor’s coach and compels its occupant to hand over his gold chain of office. But nobody takes it very seriously because the highwayman is really our old friend, Ronald Shiner, and the hold-up is staged in the name of charity. [Location is Wivelsfield Green, Sussex.]
