PUTNAM

Scores of Putnam people who are ap-
prehensive, if not really fearful, as the
result of reading the letter signed Trio
de Death which recently appeared in this
column Of The Bulletin may as well buck
up and forget the subject. There are
certain things about the letter that
stamp the writer as the cheapest kind of
a fakir, trading on the fears of timid
people. The writer of that letter was
declared Friday by an expert investigat-
or who has taken up the matter as
downright mean and cowardly liar. His
assertion that the death of Laurent Roi
of Danielson was caused by the spurious
Trio de Death can be clearly demon
strated to be nothing but the most out
rageous buncombe. The Trio de Death
did not cause the death of the Roi youth.
The Roi youths body was in the water
for a far longer period than the four
days set up by the Trio de Death as the
time following his death and the finding
OF the body, floating, and bloated, on the
surface of the Assawasa river at Daniel
son. A surprisingly large percentage of
people are chilled with fear, it has de-
veloped, as the result Of such communica-
tons as was received from Norwich by
Captain Remi Delage of the Putnam po-
lice from the spokesman or letter writer
for the Trio de Death, but they are so
frightened without reasonable cause, ac-
cording to an investigator who is now
giving attention to the case with the
promise of interesting developments for
the alleged Trio de Death in the not dis
tant future. The writer of the fearsome
letter may be an object Of cringing fear
on his own account as he faces the con-
sequences of his letter writing in the not
distant future.
Further it may be stated as an end to
| be quieting the uneasiness OF all eofnmun-
tiles hereabouts over an unusual series Of
| incidents of the week, that there was alb
solutely no connection between the hold
up of Albert Day of Pomfret and tbs
finding Of the mangled body of Charlie;

DANIELSON

There were no developments during
Friday to change the opinion Of off,
clals that the attempt to wreck a freight
train two and a half miles south Of here
late Wednesday night was the work Of
Charles Jencks, who met death in the
crash between the ties he is believed 10
have placed upon the rails and the big
locomotive that crashed into the oD-
struction.
Not new thing in the case developed
during Friday. Coroner Arthur G.
Bill shares the suicide theory held by
other officials. So, too, does Medical
Examiner George NJ Burroughs, VINO,
nevertheless, sees an unusual circum-
stance in the ability Of Jencks, who is
represented as being in exceedingly
poor health and suffering from seri-
Gus heart ailment, to move railroad ties
from where they were piled up east OF
he traek and place them on the rails
The ties weigh close to 200 pounds each.
There was no evidence before the vi
entity Of the attempted wreck was
tramped up to indicate that the ties had
been dragged from where they were
corded to the track It appears that
they were actually carried.
But, as DR.. Burroughs points out, there
are times when mentally deranged per-
sons develop super human strength for
brief periods and it might not be at all
Impossible that Jencks, in such Pc
riod, managed to carry the ties himself
md put them on the track.
Practically new wire such as is used
n some cases for clothes lines, was used
IN flashing the ties to the track. Where
lhl swire came from has not been ascer-
tanned. Neither was anything known up
