Andrews then goes into history of his life,
couched in somewhat sarcastic terms. Speaking Of
the Ellis affair, when he attempted to murder the
later in Berkeley after his arrival here from Aus
traiia he says that his assault made as the
result OF a gamblers quarrel, IN which Nulda was
the bone Of contention. He says:
I told Nulda that 1t was his life mine, and that
would kill him for two reasons First. what he
had done to her. and, second, that he would tell
the police if We mad another quarrel as had told
tice. A who makes money at gambling. as
do, does not have TO murder people for few hun
dred dollars.
He rected az length the story Of his crooked
methods of gambling. in which Ellis partner,
and of the big winnings which he claims to have
made. He says:
