McCabe Tavern Robbed in 1944


From the March 6, 2019, MidWeek  (DeKalb County, Illinois)  "Looking Back."

1944, 75 Years Ago.

"Sometime during the early morning hours, a burglary was staged at McCabe Tavern, 157 East Lincoln Highway in DeKalb, and about $90 was taken.

"As far as could be determined after a close check had been made, no liquor or any other  valuables were secured by the thieves.  Apparently, the burglars were only interested in cash and were not looking for anything else as nothing in the tavern gad been disturbed except the cash registers."
