@. How close or how far away were
you from him the first time?
A. About 8 feet.
Whited said that early in the morn
ing of March 2, 1882, he was ques-
toned by police at the estate.
@. Is there any doubt in your mind
that the man you saw was this de-
fendant?
A. No, sir.
Whited said he saw Hauptmann
again at the extradition proceedings
in New York
@. Who were at your house the
night of the kidnapping?
A. Mrs Lindbergh, Wolf. the
trooper; Lieut.. Keating, or Keaten.
and two others I don't know.
Wilentz asked him to describe
Hauptmann's attire.
He wore gray suit" said Whited
He wore gray hat tipped down in
the front and carried some sort of a
coat over his arm
@. Did you see his eyes?
A. Yes, saw his eyes.
@. How close to Col. Lindbergh's
estate was he the first time?
A. A mile and a quarter the first
time.
@. The second time?
A. Not over a half mile
Wilentz asked him then if he read

naper Trey argued that Lindbergh
had no assurance the kidnaper would
keep faith With him and pointed out
that if there was ':double-croSs" the
money would be an important clue
Lindbergh finally agreed to let
Irey'S men record the serial numbers,
with the understanding that no move
should be made against John unless
the baby was not returned. Wilson
and Madden took the already bundled
currency to the J. P Morgan Offices,
united it and had Morgan employees
make up a new package. including
many gold notes because they would
be more conspicuous.
Four Drove to Bridgeport.
Trey remained at a New York hotel
while Lindbergh and Condor paid
the money to John at st. Raym0nd's
Cemetery. in the Bronx. Then he
went to the apartment of Mrs Dwight
Morrow and joined Lindbergh, Con-
don and Col. Henry Breckenridge.
This quartet, with Al Reich, Condor S
hodyguard, Immediately drove to
Bridgeport, Conn, arriving just be-
fore dawn.
There was a wait of several hours
at an airport for an amphibian plane
which a friend of Lindbergh had lent
for the trip. Lindbergh, Breckin-
ridge. Condor and Trey then flew to
Marthas Vineyard in quest of the
phantom Nelly.
Trey and Lindbergh became close
friends during these hectic days and

frequent guest of Col and Mrs. Lind
bergh in the past two years.

The defense attorney removed his
spectacles and Mrs. Barr giggled some
more, then said no, she believed not.
Justice Thomas w. Trenchard then
gravely handed Reilly the cough drop.
She giggled again when Reilly
donned a hat in imitation of the hat
she said Hauptmann wore Mrs. Rosie
Pill, on the jury, and Mrs. Verna Sny-
der laughed with her-they were hav-
ing fine time.
Her last laugh came when Attorney
General David T Wilentz stopped her
on her way to her seat and asked
by the way, what was the name of
that picture?" (The picture Haupt-
mann saw
Mrs. Barr, with her hand on her
hip, passed by the jury box rail and
giggled, Broadway Through a Key
hole" This brought an uproar. and
a discourse on noise and confusion
from Justice Trenchard.

this ladder" Willentz argued.
We have proved that, with these
few exceptions, it is as it was found
when brought up 'Iindy's Lane the
night of the kidnapping"
Pope Again on Feet
Offering Objections.
Pope was on his feet once more, re-
tracing the ground he had covered
on his previous objections and offer
ing new ones.
II feel constrained 10 admit this
ladder in evidence" the Justice said,
at the end of Pope's last argument.
1t will be admitted"
1t was a distinct victory for the
State, for the defense during the last
three weeks had been able to block
the exhibit each time the ladder was
offered.
WilentZ picked up a dowel pin,
which Bornmann testified had been
found with the ladder.
Pope objected
"It will be admitted" Justice Tren-
chard said.
The pin was allegedly that joining
the first and second sections of the
ladder, and fell out when the con-
trivance broke under the weight of
the kidnaper and the baby.
Pope took the trooper-detective for
Cross
After questioning Bornmann about
his rank in the State police. Pope
switched to the custody of the ladder.
He was told that after the ladder
was found on the Iindbergh estate, it
was placed in the custody of Trooper
Frank Kelly, fingerprint and identifi-
cation expert.
@. Did Dr. Hudson examine the lad
der?
A. I have no knowledge of it.
@. Do you know DR.. Hudson?
A. No, sir.
@, Was it examined for finger
prints?
A. have no knowledge of that. I
turned it over to Trooper Kelly.

At Police Barracks.
Bornmann said he worked on the
ladder at the State police barracks
near Trenton with Koehler.
Wilentz interrupted the proceedings
to explain hat Edward J. Reilly
wanted an opportunity to cross-exam-
inc Thomas H. Sisk, Federal agent,
who participated in Hauptmann's ar
rest.
This would be a good time before
the State rests" Wilentz explained.
Sisk, the boyish-looking Federal
agent at whom Hauptmann yelled,
Mister, you are lying" last week, took
the stand
Reilly asked him if he had pro-
duced confidential Department of
Justice reports on the case. The
witness nodded in the affirmative.
Reilly, walking slowly toward the
witness, carrying a sheaf of papers,

occupied himself at farming and lum-
bering.
@. How many years did you live
near the Lindbergh estate?
A. Fall in 1925 to late in 1882
Whited declared he knew every per-
son who lives in the vicinity.
@. Did you see any strangers?
A. Yes.
@. Did you see Bruno Richard
Hauptmann?
A. l did.
Q. When did you sc him?
A. About the 18th of February.
@. Did you see him again?
A l did.
O. When was it?
A. Between the 25th and 27th of
February
Q. That was the February before the
Lindbergh kidnapping?
A. 1t was.
Says He Saw Bruno Step
From Woods.
Whited recited the incident. saying
he was going home to dinner and saw
Hauptmann step out of the woods "on
my left"
Il wondered why and where he came
from the logger added.
@. So that on the second time you
were only feet away from him?
A That's right.

| Cow were returning up the lane from
the gate after a walk.
She identified the guard and Wilentz
turned to the lighting Of the house the
night of the kidnapping.
Q. Were the lights in the house on
all the time that evening?
A. Yes, they were.
The defense cross-examination of
Miss Cow had insinuated that the
| lights had been flashed as possible
signal to the kidnaper.
The Lindbergh housekeeper spoke in
an almost inaudible voice. She apol-
ogized to the attorney general that
she had bad cold.
She identified the black suit case
which was in the Lindbergh nursery
underneath the kidnap window the
night Of the crime.
Mrs. Lindbergh brought the baby's
clothes down in it."
Wilentz offered the suit case in evi-
dence. There was no objection from
the defense.
| Cross Examination
Begun by Reilly.
Reilly then began cross-examination.
Her husband, she said, was reading
in the servants sitting room.
Reilly questioned her closely on the
lights in the rooms of the home.
@. The second floor you know moth
ing about?
A. Yes, I do.
She described the lighting in her
own quarters, in the halls of the Sec
ond floor and the nursery.
Reilly turned then to the thumb
guard and the weather conditions at
the time Of its discovery.
Reilly kept referring to the thumb
guard as "the mudguard," and specta-
tors Uttered frequently.
@. How long was that road from
the Lindbergh house to the gate?
A Nearly mile.
@. How wide is the path. 10 or u
feet?
A Yes.
The defense chief then went to
work to bring out how heavy the
traffic was over that road during the
time the thumbguard reputedly laid
there undiscovered.
He took the witness over the de-
tails of her story on the finding of
the thumbguard by Betty Cow.
@. Did you see her bend down and
pick 1t up?
A. 1 did
@. Who saw 1t first?
A. We both saw it together.
Court recessed for 5 minutes at
11:21 as Mrs. Whateley was excused.
The jury filed back at 1882 and
court resumed.
Millard Whited was the first witness.
Cast of Foot Print Declared
Not to Be Hauptmann's.
During the recess Reilly said that
the cast of the foot print had been
compared with Hauptmann's and
found not to be his.
He said this would be put in evi-
dence by the defense.
He also hopes to have the phono-
graphic record of Condon's imitation
of Johns" voice played for the jury.
Whiteds deeply lined face was
solemn as he took the oath and
climbed to the stand. His large,
muscular hands-hands of a logger
were clasped tightly in his lap.
He spelled his last name slowly
for the stenographer and began to
answer questions Deep wrinkles ap-
peared on his forehead, from which
his brown hair was receding.
@. From the first day of February
until the first day of March, 1882,
where did you live with relation to
the Lindbergh estate?
A lived about a mile an da half
from the Lindbergh estate.
@. Did you own a farm there?
A. did.
Q. Did your farm adjoin the Lind
| bergh estate?
A. There was a 10-foot strip be-
tween my farm and the Lindbergh
estate.
Wilentz had him relate how he

OF Hauptmann's arrest in the news
papers last September.
A. did not.
Q. Now don't want to offend you.
Mr.. Whited, but can you read?
A. A little, not much, not enough
to understand the papers.
Judge Sustains Objection
To Question About Pay.
c. Lloyd Fisher of the defense staff
began the cross-examination, asking
Whited if he received $3.50 yesterday
for having his picture taken"
Wilentz objected to that line of
questioning
Justice Trenchard said he did not
"see the materiality" of the question.
Fisher argued that the credibility
of witness could be tested by uues-
tioning on whether he was paid money
or sought publicity.
We'll. think I will sustain the OBJ
lection" )" ruled the justice.
Fisher began a series Of close cues
tlons dealing with Whited's purchase
OF farm in 1929 The witness said
ne had a deed recorded through
Potts, a justice of the peace" in
Hunterdon County.
Fisher sought to show, in Whited's
answers, that he changed his esti-
mate OF the distance from the estate
10 the spot where Hauptmann al
legedly appeared.
Q. Didn't you testify in the Bronx
that the distance was a mile and
quarter, and here a mile?
A. don't know I answer IN the
best OF my knowledge. The roads
are still in the same place.
Changes Mind on Date
Telling Sisters Death.
Fisher pressed the witness to fix tie
date he first saw Hauptmann nea
the Lindbergh estate The defensr
lawyer wanted a more exact tim
than about the 18th Of February"
Whited, after conceding ii nigh
have been the 18th, blurted out tho'
he could fiX the date. because I les,
my sister on the 18th"
Whited testified his mind "Was oc-
cupied' with family affairs at the time
and he could not be absolutely certain
of the date of tire first alleged appear
ance Of Hauptmann.
Whited, at Fishers effort to raise
doubt Of his recollection. said he did
not know Ollie Whateley, the Lind
bergh butler.
q. You want to say you knew every
body who owned property in the
vicinity and was around?
A. knew the property owners and
the people lived there. I didn't know
who Mr.. Lindbergh had working in
his house
Fisher brought out Whited likewise
did not know Mrs. Elsie WhateIey.
Betty Cow and carpenters who worked
on the Lindbergh house construction.
Logger Recalls Arrival
OF State Police.
The arrival of the State police after
the kidnapping to question him was
recounted next by the Sourland Noun
tain logger.
Wh.ted asked permission to correct
a statement in the Bronx proceeding
that Sergt. John Wallace was the first
State police official 70 question him.
He said it was Lieut.. Arthur Keaten.
Whatever said in the Bronx was
true except what I said about Capt.
Wallace" Whited explained.
Questioned further by Fisher. Whited
testified, some man." instructed by
the attorney general, read him parts
Of his Bronx testimony last Sunday
night
Fisher then demanded if the wit
ness knew why the officers came to
his house the kidnap night.
A. Not exactly.

Giggling Witness Puts Life
Into Dull Hauptnarln Trial
Reilly Has Coughing
! Spell Quiszing Ticket
Seller.

By the Associated Press.
PENNINGTON, N. j., January a.
The first giggling witness appeared
yesterday on the Hauptmann trial
scene and caused Defense Attorney
Edward j. Reilly to cough so hard
the judge gave him a cough drop.
Mrs. Cecilia Barr of Newark, who
has sold tickets for Is years at a
motion-picture house in Greenwich
Village, also put life into a listless
session by wearing slit skirt and an
alpine hat.
The trial, which had dealt all day
with Bruno Hauptmann's stock mar
ket transactions, to the vast boredom
of most persons iE court, no longer
Jagged when Mrs. Barr took the oath
with her hand on her hip.
The self-conScious theater cashier
giggled five times. but seemed sure
Of her story and impressed it on the
jury. Hauptmann, she said, had
thrown her a IS bill later identified
as part Of the Lindbergh ransom
money IN november, 1885, Wnen ne
bought a ticket one night.
Two perk white bows adorned the
wrists of her black frock, which had a
white bib collar with two points. The
slit skirt showed her knee A small
woman with a long nose, bright dark
eyes and a black bob f1uffed out at the
ears-that was Mrs. Barr
Anna Hauptmann again showed
emotion under a woman's accusation
of her husband. She had sat quietly
as a Treasury agent told how the
Hauptmann assets abruptly increased,
but now her face was red and her
hands clenched tightly.
Reilly's coughing fit seized him as
he asked Mrs. Barr if she ever had
seen him, too, at her ticket window
Mrs. Barr eyed him, giggled, flirted a
