J PENNINGTON, N. j.. Jan. 26
O.N.SO Bent over q table in his

Shrewd intellect in study Of a mass
Of documents comprising the files

The records were taken to Haupt-

Fisher, of defense counsel, in whose
Pennington offices they have been
kept since the start of the trial.
Mr.. Fisher said:
II told Hauptmann to study
the records carefully. refreshing
his mind on all dates and facts
relevant to the case so that he
will be ready for the cross-exam-

NERVOUS, DESPERATE

ney General David T. Wilentz late
yesterday.
Hauptmann complained about
the bitter, rasping method Of ex-

When Mr.. Wilentz tears into
the pale defendant again Monday,
he is expected to produce addi-
tional writings of Hauptmann's in
which the queerly misspelled
words found in the Lindbergh
ransom notes appear.

It was the lying note which told

Hauptmann's own handwriting,
the defendant looked as though
he had been struck a sudden,

He paled. He stammered.
A thin film of perspiration

The faces of the packed spec.

eyed defendant ever encountered.
It is so hot it has Hauptmann
squirming.
Hauptmann writhed and faltered
when Mr.. Wilentz suddenly sprang
what the willy witness readily rec
ognized as a trap. It was a little,
rsd-backed book belonging to the
prisoner. Opening it to a certain
page, Mr.. Wilentz asked Haupt-
mann If it wasn't a fact he wrote
the word "boad" for boat"
The man on the stand, fighting
Tor his life, realized at once the
deadly import Of the question. For
more than three weeks he had
been sitting in court hearing the
lawyers repeatedly referring to the
spelling of "boad" in the final
ransom note to Col. Charles A,
Lindbergh.
That note told Colonel Lind.
bergh his missing child was on
the "boad" Nellie, lying off Mar.
raganSett Bay somewhere.
The Washington times., 1935-01-26
Admits Spelling

Hauptmann finally admit a ted
that at one time he probably
spelled boat "boad"-eight or ten
years ago-but he was not quite
sure he ut the word in the book.
Later he said he did not think he
did. But he was anything but
emphatic.
Today. in discussing this angle
of Mr.. Wilentz's cross.examina-
ton, Defense Attorney Lloyd
Fisher told International News
Service that in his opinion Mr.,
Wilentz scored a strong point in
springing the "boad" revelation.
He continued:
"But Wilentz spoiled it all
for himself a little later. He
made the mistake Of asking
Hauptmann If it wasn't true
that he learned to write boat
that way in SaxOny. That
opens the way for us to show
on re-crOss-examination that
any one of hundreds Of Saxons
might have written IT,"
Mr.. Fisher scorned the idea
Eauptmann would "crack" under
further cross-examination Mon
day. He said he visited Haupt
mann in his cell last night and
found his nerves as steady as
any time since he has been in
Pennington. He said the prisoner
indicated he felt all right.

Can't Remember

Sensing the trap, the willy
Hauptmann stalled for time. He
asked:
How old is that bOOk?''
-, It was wholly unexpected, this
business of confronting him with
his own diary. But Mr.. Wilentz
wanted an answer. The proseeu.
tor said:
"NOw isn't the writing in this
book your writing?"
Reluctantly Hauptmann admit
ted it was.
''Now, look at that particular
word 'boad'-dfdn't you write it
there?"
II can't remember every word
I put in here"
When Mr.. Wilentz pressed him
further:
why did you spell it "bOad'?"

Pleadingly he said:
"YOu wouldn't mind to tell me
how old this book is? My hand.

Mr.. Wilentz said he didn' t
know how old the book was.
