I had heard stories about this robbery. My father, Milford Osmond Slate, had told me about The Great Bank Robbery as he grew up there in Hartselle and his father, Charlie Slate was a policeman there but I am unsure of the years he was an officer there. He said rumors had it that the robbers escaped through an underground waterway which runs under the town.
