Miller said that ;\e had never broken into a house be- ore. Fred Wood, Louis Dupre and Eugene Osler, all Putnam men, knew that he was going to Pomfret; Fred Wood sald that the officers were on his trail. Then he called Dupre on the telephone from Webster, Mass, and questioned him about the police, Dupre saying that thev were after him. He came down from Webster on the might of the 9th and saw Dupre, the latter tell- ing him to be cautious, as the officers were watching. Dupre gave him $2.
