kENNAMER CASE
NOTE MADE PUBLIC
Extortion Letter to Tulsa
Man Revealed by Youths
Defense.
BY the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
TULSA, Okla, January 26.-The ex-
tortion note which Phil Kennamer
named as primary factor in his slay-
ing of John Gorrell, jr., here last
Thanksgiving, was made public today
by Charles A. Coakley, defense at
torney.
Written In a shaky scrawl, the note
directs H. F. Wilcox, wealthy Tulsa oil
man. to obtain $4,000 in small bills
and hold it for payment as later di-
rected, under threat of certain and
painful death for one or more Of your
children"
Upon the handwriting of this note
and its contents, the defense attor-
neys hope to build large part of their
case when Kernamer, 19-year-old son
of Federal Judge Franklin E. Ken
manner, faces trial February IL in
Pawnee for murder.
Text of Letter.
The text of the letter, which ap-
parently never was mailed:
You will secure $4,000 (twenty
thousand dollars) in bills of the fol-
lowing amounts-ten thousand in 5
Cf1ve) dollar bills, five thousand in SO
(ten) dollar bills and five thousand in
one dollar bills. You will be given
further instructions later, either by
phone or mail. by an operator who will
identify himself by the symbol at the
close of this letter.
Failure to comply with our demand
will result in certain (underscoreO
and painful (underscoreO death
(capitalS) for one or more of your
children Keep the said sum in your
immediate house, for one moment S
notice.
"You must secure the money not
later than Friday noon. You will keep
this money on hand, so that if you are
notified in two days or two weeks you
will save us lots trouble and yourself
lots Of misery.
Yours in expectations,
JOHN DOE.
"Symbol-This is H. F. w. speaking.
Strict silence, even in your family,
must be observed"
Claims He FoiIed Plot.
The letter was in plain envelope.
It was not dated. Kennamer has said
that it was written by Gorrell in Kan
SaS City November 20.
Kennamer's story was that he
double crossed" Gorrell after pre-
tending to help him carry out the ex-
tortion plot. He said that pretty l8-
year-old Virginia Wilcox was the in
tended victim.
The defense has had the letter IL
the hands of an expert in an effort to
establish that Gorrell wrote the note.
DR.. J. F. Gorrell, father of the slain
youth, has clung persitently to the
theory that his son was killed because
he refused to take part in the plot
with Kennamer.

Joshua Evans, Sd, who himself fol-
lowed a bright inspiration on the
road back to health. is anxious to do
all he can to show other infantile
paralysis victims the way.
Young Evans has built up his
physical strength to a remarkable
degree in the three and half years
since the dread malady stretched him
helpless on his back for more than
year.
The 1s-year- r-old son Of we'll
known banker is now a sophomore at
George Washington University, where
he continues the studies he refused
to allow his illness to interrupt.
This year. as last, Evans plans to
attend the Presidents birthday ball
Wednesday.
Evans is known personally to the
President. who saw him at Warm
Springs, where he was a patient for

RODE FOR FORREST
Confederate Veteran Sue
cumbs, Aged 81, at Home
in Arlington County.

Monroe Grayson Chew, 91-year-old
Confederate veteran and one of the
last survivors of Gen. Forests Cav
airy, uied yesterday at his home in
Glencarlyn, Arlington County. Va. He
once was a resident of Washington.
Mr.. Chew was born March 10, 1843,
on the plantation of his father, Frisby
Freeland Chew, in YaZoo County,
Miss, adjoining the plantation of the
late Senator John Sharpe Williams.
He was for years a friend of the noted
Senator.
Fought in West.
In his youth Mr.. Chew lived in
Georgetown with his maternal grand
parents, Gen. and Mrs. George w.
Biscoe. Following secession of his
native State, he returned to Missis-
sippi and enlisted as private in the
Confederate Army under the command
of the famous cavalry leader Gen Ma
than B. Forrest. He served in the
West until the surrender. He was
paroled at Jackson, Miss.

Chew were killed in battles along

six months. and year later in Wash
ington found occasion to congratulate
him upon his remarkable recovery.
At the last White House reception for
the judiciary, President Roosevelt
again shook young Evans hand and
expressed pleasure at his progress.
Evans was about to graduate from
st. Adams School when he was
stricken. He continued his studies
in the face of an appalling handicap.
Today Evans is convinced he has
mastered the illness, but he is far
from forgetting the plight of other
victims.
THE public cannot realize" Evans
said, the cost of treating infantile
paralysis. 1t is a burden which few
victims can sustain. The mere lack
of endowed institutions for the care
Of such cases condemns many to the
life Of a helpless cripple, a burden
upon their families and society.

know that she carried 1900 cases
