She asked Sheriff Seaman to convey her thanks to the people of the vicinity and to others who had sympathized with h and aided her in the belief that she acted in self- defense. Tell of Death Threats. H. W. Moore, lawyer for Mrs. Le- baudy, said that he had proof that Le- baudy had not only threatened the life of Mrs. Lebaudy but had made attempts to hire men to assassinate her and her daughter. One of these witnesses, who gave the name of Wilbur Rother, of 23 Prospect Park, Long Island City, and went before the grand jury this morning, said that Lebaudy had sked him about six weeks ago to kill “two dogs”, offer- ing him $1,500 for the work. Rother said that when he asked for more in- formation Lebaudy showed him pic- tur of his wife and daughter and told him that it was they whom he wished to have killed Mr. Moore said that Lebaudy had tried also to hire a man named Theo- to murder his wife and daughter. Lebaudy sent for Minzer after the latter had inserted an ad- vertisement asking for employment as a chauffeur. Lebaudy's proposal was that Minzer should act as his chauf- feur and should contrive to drown Mrs. Lebaudy and Jacqueline by driv- ing into the river with them. Both men regarded Lebaudy as crazy and gave little heed to his strange offers. Mrs. Lebaudy and her daughter Jacqueline are the heirs to the Le- baudy estate, and the right of Mme. Lebaudy to inherit her share is com- pletely cleared by the finding of the grand jury that she acted in self-de- fense. No Will Found. No will of L.ebaudy has been found at the Phoenix Lodge, and it is not known whether he left one in other hands. Whether one is in istence or not is probably of little moment, in view of the volume of proof as to his mental incapacity, which would ren- der any such document of little value. One of Lebaudy’'s freaks was that of stowing aw: papers and uables in in ingenious hiding place: 0 that FJAT.D, WEDNESDAY, JANUA 1S CLEARED RY 22, 1019, 12.96 % Expenses Labor, Freight Ere. average Swift dollar received from sal Swift & Company, New Britain Local Branch, 29-43 1o Stock Rai The above diagram shows the distribution of the and mutton, and their by-products, during 1918. 1919 Year Book of interesting and instructive facts sent on request.
