POSSE SAVES
KIDNAPPED BOY
AbduCtor, Trapped, Tries to
End His Life.

MONROEVILLE, N. j., May 16.-
The 7-year old son of a banker here
was back home today, while his al
legged abductor lay at the point of
death in hospital after an attempt
to end his life.
George Miller, a Pitman con-
tractor, is alleged to have kidnapped
Paul E. Kramme Jr., son of the
vice-president of the Elmer Trust
Company in an effort to obtain
$4,000 ransom to recoup financial
losses.
The elder Kramme saw the kid
nap attempt and was shot in the
left arm by Miller when the father
attempted to follow. Miller, a war
veteran and the son of a locally
prominent sewer contractor, was
trapped later in the woods at
Wright's Mill by posse of residents
and police.
When he saw it was impossible
to escape, Miller drew his revolver
and fired a shot through his head.
Physicians say that if he lives he
will be blind. The bullet shattered
the optic nerve.
