go in and go from one end of the
Cannery to the other putting oil
soaked waste into boxes along the
wall, then 1 saw him start the fire.
My husband later came running in
to the house and began rolling on
the floor, crying that he was ruined,
I told him not to act that way be
fore me. he then got up and cursed
and said if I ever told anything he
would wreck my life.”
Reverend Sidney H. Morgan, pas
tor of the St. Paul's Episcopal
church and Burckhardt came near
blows this afternoon in the court-1
