MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OR EO ON. MONDAY. JANUARY 7. Iftt.i PAGE THREE Society and Clubs MEIER TO DECIDE (Continued from page one) been summoned by Mrs. Lindbergh. b During her testimony for the state i the nurse related that when Colonel ! Lindbergh was apprised of the fact 1 his baby was missing, he procured ft rifle, ran Into the nursery, and cried: "Anne, they've etolen our baby!" Hint '-Inside Job" The cross-examination was pointed to the line announced previously by the defense, which is an attempt to show that the kidnaping was plotted In the Lindbergh home by other than the family members and carried out by two men and two women. "Red" Johnson was a sailor on a yacht owned by one of the Morgan partners. He was acquainted with Betty Gow and she acknowledged on the stand that she went to movies with him. He was questioned during the In vestigation of the kldimptng, but was released and deported for Illegal entry Into the country. Investigation of him at the time centered about the fact that a milk bottle had been found In a car which he drove to Bridgeport, Conn. Reilly, booming questions at the little nurse, brought out the fact that , she was he first person in the Morrow home to know the Lindberghs were not returning from Hopewell on Mon day, February 29. (It had previously been testified that Betty Gow did not usually accompany the fliers to Hope well, Mrs. Lindbergh preferring the role of nursemaid heiself on these oc casions.) Informed Help "Did you tell any of the help she was not coming back?" Reilly asked. "Probably I did," she replied. "Now, what members of the estab lishment did you tell that Mrs. Lind bergh was not returning with her baby?" "I cannot recall now." , "Did you tell 'Red' Johnson?" 'I believe so." "Why did you tell 'Red' Johnson Mrs. Lindbergh and the baby were not returning?" "I cannot recall exactly telling them, but I probably would In con versation." "Well, he didn't work on the estate, ! did he?" "But I saw him that night, that evening." "You saw him Monday evening?" "Yes." "Were you out with him Monday evening?" "Yes." "Where did you go with him?" Went It lil In c "I Just don't recall; riding, I be lieve." "You were supposed to be very fond of the baby, weren't you," Reilly ask ed a bit later. "I was very lond of the baby," she replied. Then Reilly n.sked her why she didn't volunteer to go to Hopewell and care for the baby when she learn ed It had a cold. She replied that Mrs. Lindbergh didn't ask her. "But you went out Monday night with Mr. Johnson?" "I did." "And you told Mr. Johnson trat the Lindberghs were not coming back Monday night, la that correct?" "I just don't recall If I told Mr. Johnson that." "Did you tell anybody else?" "I probably did." "Why?" Told No Tradesmen "For no reason. In the house, I mean, I suppose It was a natural thing for anyone to ask me why the baby wasn't coming back and I would reply that he had a slight cold and that Mrs. Lindbergh was bringing him back." "But you told no tradespeople, did yoc?" "No." "And you told no outsiders?" "No." "And you told no strangers?" "No." "And you did not tell this defen dant, did you?" "I did not."
