Arriving in Atlanta, Was to
Get Shaved.

Still loyal to each other, Mrs. lone

dent of the Georgia and Northern

Texas. are back in the city to-day.
Mrs. Pidcock, who declared she pre-
ferred squalor with Glenn to riches
with Pidcock. arrived with her father
$. W. Reed of Conyers, and a detec-
tive. She held a consultation with
W. NJ. Smith, an attorney, but would
say little of developments in the SEN
sational case
Later she went to the Y. W. c. A.
home on West Baker Street. looking
for a place to stop for few days,
but there was no soom for her She
continued her search for a resting
place. Her lawyer expected her to
consult with him tomorrow.
Pair Register at Hotel.
She was finally located at the Da-
kota Hotel. where she and her father
registered. Later they took a stroll
about the city There are no charges
against Mrs. Pidcocl1. but the man she
ran away with is a prinsoner at the
police station on statutory charges
and for abandonment of minor chill
dren.
John Moore, attorney for Mrs. APP
pelbaum, of Dakota Hotel shooting
farue, has berr retained BY Glenn ana
visited his client late this afternoon.
Glenn's first concern when he
reached Atlanta was to obtain shave
and he tarried for speech with no one
before he was safely in a BARRIERS
chair at the city prison.
Hazltt said that Glenn was sullen
and uncommunicative throughout the
trip from Houston. .
Glad Trip is Ended.
He seemed 20 be delighted to have
reached the emo of his journey, and
posed without emotion in an automo-
bile TO have his picture taken. on
the way UP town he insisted in going
up Whitehall Street as he explained,
$50 that everybody will know I'm
back"
At first he appeared determined TO
have nothing whatever to say about
the case. but when he was asked
whether he would attempt TO affect "a
reconciliation with Mrs. Glenn he
nared up augrily.
I'll die first" he answered and re
peated the statement several times
with emphasis.
win you go back to Mrs PidcocS
if YOU are freed of the charge against
you?"
Again he seemed to hesitate before
answering. but finally with "A touch Of
he said:
Il most certainly win if / live long
enough"
When it came to disclosing any
thing as to action he will take in
fighting the case, however he re-
manned silent.
When they returned Reed and
Mrs. Pidcock were reticent. bat final
IN consented to make the following
joint statement.
we feel that our family affairs
are sacred and there has been enough
and publicity about this
acse. What we would have 10 tell
you would be nothing but facts. and
