Gillis-pie, 50, of 21-D Village" A v. v. 1 Irs i Police said both robbers in the truck wore the same type of black ski mask and black gloves. It was not known, they said, whether the third in the station wagon was armed. At the station, Haines was released from the second set of handcuffs by Sgt George McGarrity.

The robbery, police said, including the time it took to drive to the D.P.W. building parking lot, took only about 10 minutes. About 25 minutes elapsed between Haines' confrontation on Canal st. and hia arrival at the M.D.C. station.

Probably more than 100 cars drove above the D.P.W. lot while the money was being transferred. An expressway ramp passes almost directly over the lot from the Leverett traffic circle.

In addition to about 50 money bags, the truck held a red wooden trunk filled with cash and checks marked "Filene's" a 4 aaair.i'iylftnwrr station, about a quarter of a mile away. Apparently, no one at the Union Oyster House or other nearby businesses was aware that a robbery had taken place. Heavy rain and poor visibility apparently provided near-ideal conditions for the robbery. Traffic was very light in the area. Haines made it to the MDC station shortly after 6:55 p.m., and, still handcuffed, told his story to patrolman Eugene Innocenti, the duty clerk.

Innocenti immediately called Boston Police headquarters for assistance. Haines said his wrists were bruised from the handcuffs, but otherwise he was not harmed. Police found the truck at the rear of the Department of Public Works building, 100 Nashua and kept newsmen and spectators away. Haines said two sets of handcuffs were used on him. One set held his wrists together and the second set was used to chain him to the inside of the truck.

He said he used a candy wrapper to release the cuffs holding him to a door. Haines said he used the candy wrapper to slip the latch of the handcuffs much in the same manner as thieves use a piece of cellulose to slip the latches of house locks. The two guards who were out of the truck at the time of the hijacking, and Haines, the messenger, were taken to police station One in the Government Center for questioning. All were taken in through a back door. Called in on the case immediately was Police Comr.

The seven men, wearing identical chauffeurs' caps, pea jackets and rubbers, overpowered five Brink's guards, bound and gagged them and forced them to lie face down on the floor while they scooped the cash into laundry bags. It was a cold, damp Tuesday night, shortly after 7 p.m. It was, at that time, the biggest cash robbery in the nation's history and possibly the world. It was to be topped 12 years later on Aug. 14, 1962 by the Plymouth mail robbery in which $1.5 million was taken from a hijacked postal truck.

Eleven men were in on the planning and execution of the 1950 Brink's robbey. Four of them remained outside the building. Officially, only $55,000 of the original holdup loot was recovered in a South End basement business establishment. Four of the 11 men involved in the robbery have died. Six are serving life terms and one, Joseph J.

(Specs) O'Keefe, who testified about the planning of the robbery was freed after serving a prison sentence. The Plymouth mail truck robbery still stands as the largest cash holdup in the United States. At about 8 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 14, 1962, a postal truck was detoured and forced to stop along a stretch of Rte.
