They recom- mended mercy. Curtis was returned to the jail, where he has la ed for six weeks, to await sentence July 11 by Judge Adam ©O. Robbins. The maximum penalty un- der the indictment is three years' im- prisonment and a $1,000 fine. Curtis, whose court room mien has been almost nonchalant throughout the six days of the trial, stared straight ahead of him as the verdict of “guiity” was pronounced in a firm voice by the foreman, Mrs. Leila Alpaugh. His face was a mask. But Sandusky Curtis, his younger brother, dropped his mouth open in ap- parent astonishment. George, the other brother, who had given Curtis an en- couraging slap on the back as he entered the court room, also was visibly affected. Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, who testi- fled as the State’s principal witness in the trial and remained in court as long as testimony continued, was not present. Reached by telephone at his home in Hopewell, he said he preferred to make no comment on the verdict. Edmund B. Bruce of Elmira, N.
