month-old daughter were driv-
ing home on Route 7l2 from
Rockville, Va, on the night Of
January II. 1859. when O car
with bright lights pulled up
close behind him and followed
him for several miles.
HE pulled out as II to pass,
and crowded me over to the
side. forcing me to stop" Mr..
Waldrop told the all-male jury
at Rees' trial in the jackson
murders.
Described as Wild-LoOking
He described the driver a
wild-looking. with bushy dark
hair hanging over his face and
his shirt collar open. The mar

the door and started to get out,
Mr.. Keith testified.

AMysteY
By GEORGE KENNEDY

Whatever did happen to
the Percys2 That question
arose Sunday night during q
second viewing Acts 3, 4 and
5 Of Henry w, Part I.
It is an import, q TV tape
made by the British Broad
casting Co. of Shakespeare's
sequence Of King Henry
plays.
Young Percy, Harry Hot
spur, son and heir to the
Duke Of Northumberland, Is
splendidly recreated as one
Of the great knights of chiv-
airy by an actor named Sean
Connery.
Perhaps his willingness to
take the field against odds
to engage In personal COM
bat with sword and dagger
should answer the question.
That Percy was killed-ac-
cording to ShakeSpeare-on
the field of Shrewsbury by
Harry Monmouth, Prince of
Wales, who later became the
very eloquent King Henry v.
Several Of England's noble
families disappeared during
the reigns of the Plantage-
nets and Tudors. Those were
the days when the barons
did well to train their re-
tainers In the arts Of war as
well as husbandry; when
open rebellion against the
monarchy occurred in ale
most every generation, when
an unsuccessful appeal to
arms as an instrument of
political protest meant loss
of property, title and Of life
itself.

him." Mr.. Waldrop said. but
] can't say it's the man."
He was asked to point out
the man. MIR. Waldrop got up
from the witness stand. walked
over to the defense table and
pointed his finger at the So
year-old Hyattsville musician.
Describes Car
Mr.. Waldrop described the
car as q light blue or green
l952 or 1854 Ford sedan. He
said it made Q noise as though
Iit had o bad muffler.
! after we came home about
$780," the witness continued, II
heard the same noise again
when Q car passed my house
and headed north on Route 80
TO Route 609."
It was on Route 900 that
IMr. jackson, 20; his wife
Mildred, "a: and their two small
daughters, Susan Anne and
Janet, were kidnapped. Rees is
on trial for his life in the
kidnap-murder Of Mrs. jackson
and Susan Anne.
/ Mr.. Waldrop was shown q
photograph Of Rees' car. He
said 1t looked hike the car that
forced him off the road, but
could not positively identify it.
Earlier, four witnesses said
they could not remember
whether Rees arrived at a
Southwest Washington restau-
rant to fulfill q musical en-
tgagement on the night Of the
abduction.
Robert Engle, manager Of
Harrigan's Restaurant, 729
Ninth street S.W., told the jury
the defendant was usually a
member Of a trio which played
there on Sunday nights from
8 to 1880 o'clock. However,
the witness declared, he was
unable to recall whether Rees
appeared on January II, 1859.
Similar testimony came from
Phil Trupp, leader Of the group
with which Rees regularly
played at Harrigan's every
Sunday night from mid-1958
until the following summer.
Earlier testimony has been
that the defendant left Nor
folk. Va, at sundown, driving
to Washington in order to play
at Harrigan'S.
Two Others Uncertain
Two other musicians who
had played with Rees at Har-
rigan's also testified they were
uncertain about whether he
made the 8 o'clock show on
January II. 1859.
Ronald E. Markowitz said
Rees sometimes missed Sum
days, but admitted he himself
had not played at all during
the month In question.
Norman Katz told the court
he sat in with the Trupp trio
from time to time, but said he
did not recall whether he or
ReeS had played on January II.
Mr.. Trupp said he was the
drummer, Mr.. Markowitz played
the bass and Rees handled
the vibraphones. He testified
he did not recall who played
on the night Of January II,
but added 1t was not unusual
for someone to sit in in place
Of an absent musician.
Earlier, Mrs. Mary Scar
borough, q brunette waitress
from Norfolk, who was staying
at the Norfolk house from
which ReeS left, told the court
ReeS was there at 1880 am,
but gone at $50 pm.
