The "Duster," newcomer to the

Sherry Smith pitched game o.

Mails didn't have an easy task.
Supreme courage, coupled with con-

His defense collapsed in the second

Confession Is Doubted.
YOUNGSTOWN. Pa, Oct. IL
George Coughlin, father of Baby

to doubt the confession OF August
Pasquale that he had accidentally
smothered the infant and buried the
body near Egg Harbor, N. ].
Weary and nerve racked, after a
day spent with a party of policemen,
digging around Pasquale's shack at
Egg Harbor in search Of his baby's
grave, Coughlin, today was harboring
\ . hope the confession was false and
|the child was alive.
Long confinement in a cell in Nor
fyistown prison was believed by the
Coughlin family to have unnerved
Pasquale so he told a wild story. 1t
was pointed out Pasquale made other
confessions and all of them had
proved untrue.
State police, however, believed Pas
quale's confession authentic. They
said 1t was prompted by fear on his
part that the baby's body would be
found and that he would be charged
with murder, whereas If he told his
story first there was, chance he
might get of with some lesser
charge.
