HELD BY BLACK HAND
Woman Tells Story OF Being Kid
Mapped from New York.

A hair-raising story OF three weeks spent
/ as prisoner in a camp OF Black Hand
deSperadoes near Archibald, Penn, from
which she escaped by ruse and wandered
across country. begging her way until she
arrived at her home in Hoboken last
Wednesday night has placed Mrs. Evs
Pack, a young Italian woman in the lime
Eight 7nd started the police OF BROOKLYN
and Hoboker. in cooperation with the
PENNSYLVANIA constsbulary, on ne" Black
HAND case.
According 70 the story told the Hoboken
police. Mrs Blac.. who was married about
'vo wears ago to John Meyer. Hoboken
uucEman and left Lin a few weeks after
ward upon his arrest for Black Hand
outrage. was on her way 70 work In Man
haitian one morning about three weeks ago
when she met a man who told her that ier
husband was dead. She was told that
Meyers BODY was IN a house at No. -
Green Lane BROOKLYN and that she could
see L II she cared to go there
Mrs Black says that she had no sooner
entered the Brooklyn house than she was
seized by number Of men, thrown on thH
floor gagged and then made Unconscious
with chlcroform. and that for four days
following she was kept under the influence
Of dope" When she came 70 her senses
she found that Frances Severna, girl
v no had testified galnst Never at the time
OF his conviction for the Black Hand ONT
RACES, was also a prisoner in the house
Both girls we're told that they were 70 be
taken to Archibald. Perm. by Meyer. tns
supposed dead man. and another gangster.
Mrs Never says that such horrible
~ daatn torture r0ada
her and the Severina girl that both went 20
the train, and made the trip 20 the little
PENNSYLVANIA town without resistance. Ar
irving there, they travelled some distance
thro1. gin deep woods to a camp, where they
found several other men and another girl.
Meanwhile. Patrick Black, who had mar
ried Mrs Never following her divorce from
her first husband, set out in search Of his
wife. He followed members of the gang
around until he gained their confidence and
asked 10 be made a member himself. he
was so persistent that he was finally taken
to the Brooklyn house. and from there ~
the Pennsylvania camp, where. to test his
nerve, he said he was compelled 10 fight 3
revolver duel with another man, whom he
wounded in the leg. He escaped unharmed
and was thereupon declared member OF
the gang in good standing.
Black said that although he was morally
certain his wife was in the camp, he never
caught glimpse Of her until one night IN.
latter part of last week when he was put
at sentry duty. He hunted around In the
darkness until he found her. provided him
self with loaded revovers and ran out o.
the camp under cover OF darkness. They
had not gone far when their absence vas
discovered. but they managed TO get aboard
a freight train and ride To Stroudsburs,
Penn. before they we're found by trainmer
and thrown of. From there they tramped
their way across countr. 10 Paterson and
on TO Hobokcn
As wild as the story Is. the police have
confirmation OF It and they say the pair ara
probably telling the simple truth.
