Dan Webb Testiies
Dan Webb, 500 Line special

time on the stand to inject preju-

by objections made by Rerat. Once
even District Attorney Hammond
halted him as he tried to get in
prejudicial statements.
Neal Takes Stand
Wednesday, after the prosecution
had rested, after having interrogat-
ed sixteen witnesses, Meals counsel,
Eugene Rerat, outlined his clients
defense. He said he would show
that w. Squire Neal had done no
more than any man would have
done under similar circumstances,
He said he would show that at nc
time did Neal attempt to conceal
the $500 he turned over to the
Federal agents. The defense would
show, Mr.. Rerat said, that Squire
Neal had no knowledge of his
brothers entertainments.
Upon direct examination Neal
covered the entire period from the
time of his brothers disappearance
on Dec. %, until he was surren-
dered on Jan. 5, his own arrest and
arraignment later.
He reiterated his innocence ano
complete ignorance of any large
amounts of money his brother had
allegedly put into the funeral cor
poration. He said John told him
he earned over $500 from the Soc
Line R. R.
Under a stiff cross-examination
Neal maintained stoutly that his
testimony was the truth. At times
he grew so vehement in his an
swers that he gestured with both
hands. He denied telling Swanson
his bookkeeper, to change the cor
poration books.
