PREACHER OERRIGRSON
SPEAKS FOR THE PIPPINS


From the pulpit of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, at Marydel,
there was delivered Sunday night,
January 81, a spirited defense Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel II Pippin,
who signed statements declaring
that they had, by mistake, carried
a bottle containing poison to the
local opera house for use in an am
ateur play, and as a result OF which
their relative Charles L. Pippin,
died from drinking stage wine
mixed with the contents.
Soon after mounting to the pull
pit to begin his sermon, the Rev
+. H Derrickson referred to the
Pippin confessions, and declared
it to be his belief that the Pippins
were innocent Of any intentional
crime. " In addition to this Mrs
Derrickson wife OF the pastor, spoke
in behalf of the couple Both the
pastor and his wife asked the con
gregation TO refrain from discussing
the case.
When the story of the admission
of the Pippins became known
among a few of their friends sew
eral of their most intimate friends |
visited the home to condole Mr.
and Mrs. Samuel Pippin. Both are
highly respected in Marydel and no .
one believes that they Intentionally .
put poison in the vine
One of the bottles from which
Pippin drank the poison is the col
or of amber. Mrs. Maud Pippin
said she was not positive the poison
had come from her house until she
heard this bottle described. She
had contended the stage wine was
drunk from a white bottle until her
husband confirmed the report.
Mrs. Pippin said her reason for
of the bottle which de-
tective Pohler recovered from the
well in the back yard of the Pippin
home, was that she feared she
would be unjustly suspected by any ]
one conducting an investigation if
poison was found in her house. She
said she had no idea that the poison
have come from her until she D.,
learned that bichloride of mercury :
and corrosive sublimate are prac-
tically the same
Samuel Pippin said that he did
not know his wife had the old cor
-osive sublimate bottle in the house. 4
He admitted he bought the corro- n
iive sublimate in Wilmington and b
also that when he searched for two n
1ottles for the play he found them e
