4:00 p.m. I told him I thought I would be there only « few minutes
and had not meant to over park. He bawled me out and then let me go.
While I was talking to him I noticed HALL hunched up on the far side
of the seat, apparently in an attempt to keep the officer from seeing
him. At this time I began to wonder about him. We started again for
the Coral Courts and during the trip SANDY asked him what was in the
trunks, He had apparently mentioned them to her during my absence.
He said that he had two trunks in the back of the cab but that he had
lest two of his suitcases some place. He said the trunks were full
of serum, ‘animal or human, what's the difference?’ During the trip
he talked mostly about getting cleaned up. SANDY didn't talk much.
At his request I stopped at a liquor store in the 5200 block of Chippewa
and got a fifth of 1842 whisky and four packs of Pall Mall ciparettes,
"We then drove out to Coral Courts arriving there about
5:00 P.M. HALL told me to ask the manager if there were any vacancies
as they had been unable to get a hotel room. The manager said he had
a vacancy and HALL went inside to register. ‘when he came out, the
Manager told me how to get to cabin 494A. We drove there and I carried
the suitcase-trunks up to the room one at a time, HALL seemed quite
pleased with the accomodation and suggested that I have a drink with
them. I did and was there from one-half to three-quarters hour. SANDY

didn't drink much during this time. HALL asked me to Ze. nif a white
silk shirt, some silk underwear and socks. SANDY also asked me to
go to her house and pick up a dress, a pair of shoes, her purse and a
stole. I was to deliver them back at the court at about 10:00 P.M.
While I was there SANDY started talking about money, HALL said, ‘money
doesn't mean anything. I trust you two kids. Sometimes I go on a
bender for three or four days. Like to have a good time and maybe
spend two or three thousand dollars'. He then went to his coat which
he had hung in the closet and returned with a handful of $20 bills.
He was pretty well intoxicated at that time and started to count them,
SANDY interrupted him and he lost count, whereupon he got a little
angry and told me to count the bills. There was one £20 bill short of
$2500.00. He produced another $20 and said he would make it the full
$2500.00. He told me to take the money and stash it away for him. He
also told me to rent an automobile in my own name the next day and to
buy us a good suit, a Hickey-Freeman suit, and to come out in the rented
caritthe next morning. He said that he wanted to use a car for two or
three hours the next day to visit someone. He then walked over to the
closet and got a pistol out of his pocket and showed it te us. SANDY
