This informant, Lautenbach said, told him of the kidnapping plot in ~which $40,000 was to be split among the woman and two men companions. The complaint upon which Lau- tenbach had Miss Brandon arrested chargés that last September 29 she lured him to her apartment and at the point of a revolver compelled him to pay $40, sign checks for $5,- 000 and $15,000 each on which he subsequiatly stopped payment and write a statement declaring himself to be Miss Brandon's common law husband and to be indebted to her for $20,000, MRS, STILLNAN KNTTS More Concerned ?rar Son’s Poison Ivy Infection Than Husbend’s At- tempt At New Trial.
