(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."

I been feelin" sorta rotten
Since I got this case of flu
And my doctor jes now told me
Lots of others had it too.
I hate this dern monotony
A bein' laid up on the shelf
Cuz all I do the whole day long
Is jes feel sorry f er myself.
They say I got a temperature
They made me go to bed,
Mustard plaster on my chest
And cold packs on my head.

And take aspirin by the ton,

This flu sure aint no fun.

They console me and advise
We think that we might start a club
And sorta organize.
