Rev. John D.B. Williams had gotten up at 3 a.m. to tend his baby when he heard strange noises coming from his Riverton, R.I., church next door. Two men on the church roof were sawing off the brass weather vane. Rev. Williams called the police, then held the men at gunpoint. (Yankee Magazine; Dublin, N.H.)
