tomobile that fled with the men who

tain that ,Saeco was the man.
Continuing under cross examination

lower court testimony shortly after
the arrest of Sacco and Vanzetti, when
she was quoted as sayins~- Il don't
think my opportunity afforded me the
right to say that he is the man" She
said to-day that she meant what she
said. She had changed her mind as to
whether she had any doubt that Sacco
was the man without seeing him since
his appearance lin the lower court,
counsel for the defense developed. Orig
inaliy he was brought before her for
identification alone, and was not lined
up with other men, she said.
Two eye witnesses of. the shooting,
who followed Miss Splaine, said they
could not identify the muyderer. James
f. MeGlone, a teamster, who was
working across the street from the
scene Of the crime, said he saw one
bandit holding Alessandro Berardelli,
the paymaster's guard, by the shoulder
and shooting him with black auto.
matte pistol. As the automobile which
took the bandits away passed ups the
street, McGline said he thought he saw
a rife stuck out through the back win

Mrs Anne Nichols, who lived dag
onally across from the scene of the
shooting, testified that she heard one
shot come from point near pile
Of bricks directly opposite the scene of
the attack She saw BerardelIi shot |
down and r. A. Parmenter, the pay
run. She saw the bandits jump
INTO the automobile but she said she
could not say whether either Sacco or
Vsnzetti were among the men. i
McGlone said the bandits, three in
Ill, were of medium height and looked
