MRS.L|NDBERGH.
TESTIMONY
ASSA|LED

TRENTON, N. j., July 5 QN.S)
Counsel for Richard Bruno Haupt-
mann today charged that Mrs.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh refuted
one of the States theories as to
how her baby, Charles A. Lind
bergh, jr., was kidnapped.
In a supplemental brief, filed
with Assistant Attorney General
Joseph K. Lanigan, the defense
lawyers asserted Mrs. Lindbergh
refuted the State theory in her
testimony at the trial of Haupt.
mann, who was convicted of the
baby's murder.
After citing a portion of Attor-
ney General David T. Wilentz'
summation to the jury, in which
he claimed the child was killed in
the nursery before he was removed
from the Linidbergh home, the
brief states:
"The evidence of Mrs. Anne
Lindbergh, the housewife and
mother, was that nothing in
the room was disturbed. The
safety pin still held the COW
ers to the mattress. This would
indicate that the child had
been lifted carefully from the
crib and by friendly hands, as
there were no bloOdstains or
evidence Of haste anywhere.
"ThuS one of the States
theories is refuted by Anne
Aindbergh, its most reliable
witness"
One of the main poinst of
Hauptmann's appeal is that the
State did not prove the Staying
occurred during commission of a
felony, namely, burglary, as
charged in the indictment.

According to police he admitted
he bought some poison and slipped
it into the coffee urn shortly before
the family sat down TO dinner.
Then, covertly watching, he saw
his aunt and uncle raise the lethal
cups to their lips He refused cof-
fee himself. he said.
His uncle felt the effect Of the

told police he then went into the
bedroom, and found that his uncle
was also dead.

not know what to do. he said,
After lowering in the silent dining

the bodies.

front until he found a deserted
pier Rolling the car out near the

pulled out the throttle, stepping off
the running board q moment be-
fore it splashed into the dark wat

Drake said he watched half an
hour TO be sure the car sank, then
returned to Los Angeles.
Police said he forged his uncle's
name TO a check and made a down
payment on another car next day,
then WENT back to the pier TO see
whether any trace Of the car had
risen to the surface.
Miss Hayden said Drake drove
her along the waterfront last Fri
