"Did you tell Mr Preecc. after sign-
ing the paper, that if it were lost, or

“Nothing of ths‘bort-was said. Dr.
Clapp stated that he would place it in
a safe deposit vault. and that when
the money was phld he would return

ever see it. i do not personally know
that he ever did show it to any one

‘ "When Dr. t‘lapp at that refused to

“And that the only one who was aci-
lugY in bad faith was Hello Shailcr?“
Asked about the conversation under
the isilrond bridge he said he did of-
for to shake hands with Mr. Prcecc,
and that he did not offer to pay $50 to
the child. There was absolutely noth-
ing of that character.
He add he understood the $400 which
Dr. (‘lapp wanted was to cover every'
thing connected with the case Based
on his own experience. he thought it
s p ctty lam suin. He had no under-

the certificate of birth until he read of
it in the newspapers after ills arrest.
