That violence to Mrs Munson was

A statement issued by the Waperlo

these rumors. The Wapello police
did not prevent MI Munson from
coming to Wapello. Concerning any
threat Of violence, the police say
that Mrs. Munson's presence In the
Jail aroused only mild interest IN
Wapello. The reason gwen FOR her
removal is that the jail was excep-
