GAlhEllL FEELS SURE OF BEING
A.BuJE TO IDENTIFY THE BOX
A Stockton special, dated August %
contains the following information Of
interest:
Additional evidence has been secured
tending to- prove that the candy with
which the poisoned sweets were mixed
and sent to Mrs j. p. Dunning and
Mrs J. d. Dsane was purchased at the
Wave Candy Store in this city. Cir
cumstances surrounding the part

When Gattrell read the dispatch
sent from Dover, Dell, describing the
candy in the box received there. ne
distinctly remembered having p.aced
the chocolates In the box for the wo-
man who called at the Wave, and, af-
ter purchasing some candy, placed the
contents OF a paper sack in the same
box, but he did not term them "olive
sIhapsd," though many people often re-
fer TO them as being OF that shape.
The telegram specifies that the choco-
lates were arranged in layers covered
with ornamented tongs. lace handlser-
chief and a note 10 Mrs. DunnlngA
Gattrell, when shown this sentence
said: Il did not place the candy In the
box in layers, but remember putting
in a pair Of tongs answering that de-
scriptlon. The lace handkerchief, Of
course, was put In by someone else
who probably wrote the note. Oblong
bonbons referred to In the dispatch I

ones / placed in the box, but the
waters could not identify till 1 saw
them. unless they are fat chocolate
drops covered with sugar pellets
mixed with the other candy.
"A.l OF the candy i refer to may
have come from some other stone. but
the moment Il see can positively say
whether or not It was purchased from
me. There is a popularity about our
candy that cannot be found at other
shops. and that made by our factory
is different from that produced at an
other"
