TALLY As follows:
"A rich fellow took Little Louis and
me TO New Rochelle late one night. We
were told 70 protect him in case OF
trouble. When we got Just outside OF
New Rochelle a man brought a woman
out in his arms We were driven back
through New York 10 a fork in the
roads, from which could see the West
Point buildings in the distance. Then
we turned inland. and they carried the
woman into big country house and
placed her on a couch
The next day the limousine called
and took US to the house near West
Point again. The same gentleman car
ried the body Of the woman, wrapped
in sheet, 70 the cellar of the house,
where she was buried.

Six weeks ago Glennoris told the Rev
James Z. Blake, chaplain OF the state
institutions. that he had something on
his mind. He was permitted TO come to
the guard room, where, in the pres
ence OF the chaplain and Warden
Davis. he told the story which he re-
peated tonight. He said his conscience

his home. "Glennoris was not talka-
tive fellow. believe he felt impelled
to make this confession 10 ease his con-
science. There is no truth in the re-
port that he had recently been con-
verified and wished 20 square himself
with his new religious life" Warden
Davis, however, does not place much
faith in the confession.
There must be some motive behind
this" said the warden. "Glennoris,
model prisoner, will be eligible for
parole soon. He finishes his eighteen
months for extortion in November"
Lieutenant Ahearn refused TO make
public any additional information about
the mans testimony on the ground
that the report 10 the New York police
was confidential I'VE are through

Glennoris claims that he Is full
blooded Indian, although his record at
the prison shows that he is Of French
descent. At one time he was an actor.

Don't try to do everything in

II you select everything on one
trip, some gifts are bound to be
mishts. You will be tired out.
You will finish too early. When
others are having the fun Of
shopping a week or two before
Christmas you will be sitting at
