By the Associated Press. BLAIRSTOWN, N. J.,, May 11.—De- fense Counsel Egbert Rosecrans dis- closed today that 42 of the 193 causes for reversal of the conviction and death sentencing of Bruno Richard Hauptmann for the slaying of the Lindbergh baby are “errors” in Justice Thomas W. Trenchard's charge to the jury. No defendant has ever successfully appealed a verdict rendered in the court of Justice Trenchard, who is the oldest justice of New Jersey's Supreme Court, in point of service. Fair Verdict Impaired. Twenty of Hauptmann's 42 excep- tions to the charge concern the in- structions of the court to the jury, and the remainder deal with the court’s refusal to charge as requested by defense counsel. The charge “impaired a fair ver- dict,” Rosecrans contended in the ap- peal filed yesterday, in embracing such statements as: “It is argued that the testimony of Dr. Condon (who paid over the Lind- bergh ransom) is inherently improb- able and should be in part rejected by you, but you will observe that his testimony is corroborated in large part by several witnesses whose credibility has not been impeached in any man- ner whatsoever. “Upon the whole, is there any doubt in your mind as to the reliability of Dr. Condon’s testimony?” Fisch Angle Cited. | | som bills. moneys, were left with him through the air; one hit a block with & !

It was probably the proudest hour of his life when he limped up Commercial street at the head of the men of his county and New Concord cheered itself hoarse. New Concord was his own be- loved town once more. He had not failed her when his moment called. ‘When- “the general” returned home Nappy was so immensely relieved and so blissfully happy that he was for once almost speechless. All he could say was “Dawg gone! Dawg gone!” over and over, while tears ran shame- lessly down his face. It was noticed in New Concord that Nappy there- after limped a little when he walked. He was never able to walk quite straight again any more than was James, . Jane had not been idle during| James’ absence. With a husband at the front, Jane’s sharp speeches of the past were tolerated and forgiven. Jane helped organize and run the New Concord Chapter of the Red | Cross, helped to sell Liberty Bonds, helped raise money for home relief, for the Y. M. C. A. ! She proved so efficient both as a | speaker and as an organizer that her fame spread. She was asked to go to| St. Joseph and make speeches there. | She went and remained to help with the Y. M. C. A. hut and canteen at the railway station. Fully occupied at last, her natural energies and un- doubted organizing abilities finding | for once an outlet, Jane forgot to be sarcastic, forgot all about her health, | became what she was meant to be—| a happy and efficient youngish woman, ! even a charming youngish woman. She geldom had time to think of | James, but when she did she thought of him' kindly, even proudly—that is, until she met Mrs. Benson. Mrs. Benson was one of the Wymans | of St. Joseph, so was not only born with a golden spoon in her mouth, but acquired a full golden service on her | marriage. Left a widow in 1917, Mrs. Benson decided to forget her grief in “service.” A cousin in New York suggested | that she “man” a fully equipped am- GREAT RICHES Mateel #owe Tarnham to' stay. After the second welcome, the second parade in New Concord, which took place fairly early in the morning. Aunt Sarah had a family luncheon at the mansion. There had been, during James’ absence, a semi- HCOHC"]I"OH between Saiah Stimson and the Northrups. Mr. and Mrs. Northrup went with Jane to the luncheon. Mr. Northrup did most of the talking. The North- rup twins had been enlisted in the Aviation Corps, and though they did not get to France Mr. Northrup made it plain that in his opinion the flyers had taken all the risks that were worth anybody’s mentioning. A fiyer faced death daily, took his life in his hands every time he went aloft. While a mere infantryman . . . The luncheon could hardly be called & howling success. After it was over and the Northrups were impatient to depart, James said brusquely that he meant to stay a while with his aunt. He had to see to a lot of things about the place. “I'll take mother and father home and come back for you in an hour or two,” Jane suggested brightly. It was evident to her husband that Jane was schooling herself to endure patiently and with wifely sweetness the stings and exasperations of their renewed relationship. With a sudden swift intuition James realized that Jane was one of those women (and there are more than any one guesses) to whom mar- riage becomes inevitably a galling bond. She was not sexless, but under- sexed. Sooner or later any husband, James particularly, but any husband, would have annoyed and exasperated her. “Jane just maturally doesn’t like men much,” was the way James put it to himself. To be sure she was fond of her father, but he was an old woman if there ever was one. She had never cared for her brothers, | never liked the judge, had never been interested in what James called “man talk.” James refused decisively to allow Jane to come back for him. He need- ed exercise, was spoiling for exercise. He'd follow her after a while. The Northrups drove off in a huff was Mr. Northrup's gift to Jane as bulance with woman nurses, woman doctors, woman drivers. and place it | at the disposal of the French govern- | | ment. The suggestion was acted on; the French government a thank offering (or consolation) for James’ safe return.
