SMITH On the evening of November 1, 1933, the writer was in apart- ment 207, Sherone Apartmants, in company with other Agents, having under j ‘surveillance the apartment in which it was believed Verne Miller was stay- ° ing. , Agent was in the kitchen et approximately 8:50, keeping the Miller apartment under surveillence through the service door when | he was advised that a telephone call hed been overheard in which instruc- tions had been issued to bring Mrs. Moore's roadster to the hotel.
