Ella Tells About
Chapman
Postal Inspector, Witness,
Says Gerald Is Good
Yarn Spinner.

Gerald Chapman, nationally no.
torious criminal sentenced to hang
June 25, has a keen sense of humor
and enjoys telling of anecdotes in
cident to his many escapades, ac-
cording to w. c, Ella, postal inspec-
tor, who has returned from Chap
mans trial at Hartford, Conn,
where Ella was subpoenaed.
On one occasion, Chapman told
Ella, he had entered a store and had
planted nitroglycerine to blow safe.
He went out to the sidewalk to await
the explosion.
The town marshall accosted him,
and began talking, Chapman said.
Chapman was worried and hoped
the marshal would leave before the
blast occurred. Suddenly the charge
exploded with a dull rumble. A
flash of light appeared on the plate
glass window OF the store.
The marshal looked up at the sky
and exclaimed, Gosh, hope it don't
rain before morning. He had mis-
taken the explosion and flash for
lightning and thunder. and hurried
away on his beat.
