With Man Testifying At
Trial
Uny associated Press,

NEWARK, Oct. 4.-The
death of Arthur Maillefert
in a sweatbox in a Florida
prison camp had a strange
sequel today, and it is one
of the most extraordinary
stories to go down on'a local
police blotter for investiga-
ton.
1t came from the nervous
lips of Mrs. Julia Maillefert,'
the Jersey kids" mother,
who told a precinct captain
that she was living in con-
slant fear of death at the
hands of a former chain
gang convict whom she be-
friended.
The convict she said is
James Travis. 40, who was
recently given a conditional
release from prison.
Travis testified at the
trial of a prison official who
was convicted in Maille-
fert's death.
Travis, she said. had been
trying to force his atten-
tions on her, and rebuffed,
ne allegedly gave her and q
younger son a severe beat
ing and afterward threaten
ed to kill her.
He also caused her to lose
her job in a department
store where she had OBJ
tanned employment, by MAX
ing a scene there, she said.
