Leonard HetscheI Charged
With Abduction, Following
Jitney Escapades.
WROTE OF EXPERIENCES
IN VARIOUS PLACES
Girl Still Missing, but Police

The mystery of the disappearance
of Amelia Koenig, fourteen year
old, who left her home at 3S9 Soutt
Sixth street ten days ago, has been
cleared up by Detective George Kaas.

rested Leonard Hetschel at 791
Springfield avenue at 2:30 this morn
ing, and says that he found in
Hetsehels pocket a letter from the
girl, which described her activities
on the two days following her dis
appearance. Hetschel is locked up
in the Fourth precinct, charged with
abduction
Hetschel, who is twenty-five years
old and known as kid Lefty is a
driver of a jitney bus The letter
from the girl which was dated Sep
tember 2S, two days after her dis
appearance, tells a pathetic story of
two days away from home for two
reasons-because I didn't want to go
to school and because l had few
words with my mother" She closes
by asking Hetschel, whom she had
previously known, as well as many
other jitney bus drivers. to befriend
her.
In the two days with which her let
ter deals the girl, with another of her
own age, whose name is not men
toned, rode around in iitney busses
for twelve or fourteen hours day
with drivers known to her as Red"
apple Pie" SAM Levy" and
Irish" Strong accusations are made
in her letter against Sam" and
Levy"
The one who made the girl angry,
however. was "Irish," who refused to
give her ten cents on the second day,
when she wanted to get some lunch,
and who also refused to slow down
his car and permit her to alight ON
one trip when she caught sight of
Hetschel. The rudeness of Irish"
made her want to "end II ALL" she
wrote.

The girl then told of leaving home

TAYLOR
PLACES SELF At
COURTS MERCY
Former South Orange Official
Pleads Non VuIt to SwindIing
of Client.

Andrew 6. Taylor, former police
justice of South Orange and promin
ent socially, threw himself on the
mercy of the Court of Quarter SEES
sions, presided over by Judge Os-
borne, today. Taylor was arraigned
on the charge of obtaining by false
pretense $3.50 from Mrs. Katherine r.
O'Reilly of South Orange. He with
drew his previous plea of mot
guilty and submitted one of mon
vult.'
After Taylor's arrest last spring,
an attempt was made to have him
declared insane. He was committed
to Overlook temporarily by Judge
Osborne, but after hearing of the
facts, the Judge refused to pronounce
the accused man lunatic and he was
released ON s2,500 bali. His counsel,
who appeared in court with him to-
day. are former Senator Everett
Colby and Leo Stein.
Taylor, who is a Yale graduate and
a member of one of the best known
South Orange families, has lived
there all his life and in addition to
service as police justice, has been a.
member of the board of education, a.
trustee of the South Orange Gene
terry Association and an active MEM
ber of the South Orange Home and
School Association.
After the death of his father he was
sole trustee Of the estate of Anna A.
Burnet until removed by the court at
the request of the beneficiaries. Ed
win B. Goodell, who was substituted
for him, found that the estate should
have $4,000 more in IL, according to
his figures, than the amount ac-
knowledged by Taylor. The latter in
sisted that he merely had made an
error In bookkeeping.
The matter on which he was in
dicted was in connection with the
estate of Lewis Mack, a former South
Orange grain dealer. Taylor acting
as counsel for the estate, pressed a
claim against Michael O'Rellly. of
South Orange, and had sold by fore
closure parcel of property valued at
almost $4,000 for about $500, the
amount he claimed to be due.
After the sale he is charged with
obtaining $3.50 from Mrs. Katherine r.
O'Reilly by representing to her she
could obtain title to the property just
sold by payment OF that amount.
What purported to be a deed to the
property given by Taylor to the
woman proved to be invalid.

MRS. IF. DRYDEN
AN INVALID At
COUNTRY HOME
Petition by Executors of Hus-
bands Estate FiIed-Un-
conscious for Months.

Application has been made in the
Court of Chancery for the appoint
ment of a guardian for Mrs. John f.
Dryden. widow of former United
States Senator Dryden. She has been
seriously i'll for months at her resi-
dence at Bernardsville, and, accord
ing to the petition, will remain an
invalid She has been totally uncon-
scious for the last three months, it
is said.
The petition to the courts is made
by her son, Forrest F. Dryden, presi-
dent of the Prudential Insurance
Company and by her daughter, Mrs.
Anthony F. Kuser. They are CO.
executors with Mrs. John F. Dryden
of Senator Dryden's estate.
Forrest F. Dryden and Mrs. Kuser
desire to sell a tract of land in Wan
tage and Montague townships, Sussex
county, that belongs to the Dryden
estate. It is an unproductive invest
ment. because it is almost entirely
unimproved and covers more than
5000 acres. The proceeds for this will
go to the grandchildren of Senator
Dryden. They are: John F. Dryden
H., who recently attained his major
ity: Dorothy Dryden, Elizabeth Dry
den, John Dryden Kuser and Cynthia
Dryden, all minors.
The petitioners for a guardian are
ready to pay $76OSS for the Sussex
county property. This represents the
amount paid by Senator Dryden and
the cost of improvements. 1t is
stated that the land, if sold at public
auction is likely to not bring more
than $50,000. The executors, how
ever. desire to have the land sold and
to increase their bid If any other per-
sons offer more than the $7O.0sS al
ready offered.
