Taken IN hand later BY William \.
De Ford. Assistant District Attorney,
Thav qualified this statement. saying
Dr Russell had never said he would
discharge Thaw for sum OF money.
but that il was Or. Russell and not
Thaw who had first mentioned the
necessity FOR lawyer.
Whether another statement made by
, Thaw that DR. Russell gave the whole
plan away" had anything 10 do with
the insinuation he brought against Or.
Russell and the consequent weakening
of the case against Anhut Is matter
Of conjecture

He strobe into the courtroom without

in expectation Of his appearance. For
a moment he hesitated at the gate
which leads TO the defendants table
the spot where he spent so many hours
five years ago Directed by an al
tendant. he took the stand. and was
sworn after Justice Seabury had told
the Jury that the witness they were
q hout TO hear.had been committed as
insane.
Thaw crossed his legs and leaned
hack in his chair when Mr.. De Ford
began his questions. He held his body
rigidlv erect during the direct exami-
nation and kept his hands locked IN
his lap. When the cross-examination
began he frequently leaned forward
and shook a finger at Mr.. Palmer 10
