Convict witnesses at the in
quiry, which is being conducted
by Attorney General Gilbert Bett-
man at the direction Of the
governor, blamed Guard Captain
John Hall for the great loss OF
life in the fire. They said Hall
failed to order that the men
trapped In cell blocks @ and H
be released. They declared that
feeling In the prison against
Warden Thomas and Hall was
high.
Thomas Watkinson, one Of the
prison guards, was the first wit
ness called at the inquiry this
morning. He calmly smoked a
cigarette as he testified.
Could Have Saved Men
It was Watkinson's judgment
that "all of the prisoners could
have been saved If there bad been
system"
He declared he had never had
a conference with other prison
officials relative to plans for cop
ing with a fire within the prison
and that there was no freight
ing equipment inside the prison.
Watkinson was on duty at the
entrance to the Inflated cell block
when the fire broke out. He testi-
fled that he offered to open the
main door to the cell block when
he found there was a fire but that
Capt. John Hall, in charge OF the
night shift of guards, told him to
wait a while" Although he made
repeated requests for permission
to open the door, he declared Hail
did not authorize him to do so.
Captain Hall left without per-
hitting him to open the door to
the cell block, Watkinson said. He
later learned that Hall was over
come" and had to leave. af
Sometime later, WatkinSon said,
n colored "trusty'' handed him a
duplicate key with o request that
he open the door. He said me
promptly did so.
Guards Had No Keys
Other prison guards who arrived
on the scene had no keys to the
cells, according to WatkinSon.
They consumed several minutes
sizing up the situation before go
ing to the guard room and Secur-
ing the keys.
Watkinson said he learned the
guards experienced difficulty In
obtaining the keys because prison
officials appeared to be fearful
that the prisoners would make "a
break" if released from their cells.
Most of the guards, he SAID,
were fearful about liberating the
prisoners from their cells lest they
try to escape from the prison.
He said Captain Hall appar-
emily was Of the opinion, early
after the fire started, that 1t
would not amount to much. Wat
kinson said he repeatedly cried
to Hall to let the prisoners out
but that Hall did not order 1t
done.
No guard patrolled the con.
struction work at night, accord
ing to WatkinSon.

Francis Barry, society matron
asked Mrs. Palmer to luncheon
and failed to include Mrs. Posi-
in her invitation.
Steps In the death drama nc
cording to police, were followed
by means of the mute testimony
Of the scene.
Mrs. Post and Mrs. Palmer
were alone together after Mrs.
Barry had called and extended
her luncheon invitation.
The women quarreled, perhaps
very bitterly. "
Mrs. Post went to her room
and obtained an ivory handled
50 caliber revolver. She shot
Mrs. Palmer twice in the back,
police said the evidence showed.
RumOrs Followed
One bullet struck Mrs. Palmer
In the shoulder and pierced her
chest. The second struck her in
the back of the head.
Then. driven by remorSe, Mrs.
Post probably careSsed the body
Of her friend. for her silk pajamas
and her slippers were blood
stained.
A pillow was found near the
head of Mrs. Palmer.
Police thought Mrs. Post had
placed it there to ease the last
moments of her dying friend.
At times during the two hours
which followed the death of Mrs.
Palmer, Mrs. Post paced ner-
vouSly about the rooms.
NeighborS saw her through. the
windows, unaware Of the tragedy
at that time.
Makes Up Mind
Finally, police said. Mrs. Post
appeared to make up her mind to
die.
She washed her hands, leaving
blood traces in the lavatory and
on the towel.
Then she went to the living
room. Somewhere, unknown to
police, Mrs. Post discharged
third cartridge.
Then she placed the muzzle Of
the pistol in or near her mouth
and fired the fourth bullet.
Mrs. Post fell dec.i, half facing
the hallway leading to where
Mrs. Palmer's body lay.
The inquest was set for Mon
day by Coroner Charles Brown.
