Y., May 11 () — Judd Gray regards the ver- dict of first degree murder returned against him and Mrs. Ruth Snyder a just one, he told Under Sheriff Desmond today. “If I had been sitting on the jury under similar circumstances,” said the slayer of Albert Snyder, “I would have been forced to return the same verdict. The evidence warranted it.” Gray told Desmond he had found solace in rcading the Bible , and was resigned to the death sentence which Justice Scudder will impose Monday. Only the fact that he has been denied permission to see and talk with his former mistress, Mrs. | Snyder, disturbed his tranquillity. Mrs. Snyder was calmer today and more cheerful.* Three matrons continued to guard her constantly, especially at meal times when ft | was feared the woman might harm | herself with table instruments.
