So thrv lust sat there and slaved checkers amltdectded they were as forlorn and lost, as any two Doya might be. They admitted to the newspaper photographer who dropped in that maybe it would be nice if their pictures were in the paper, because someone might seek them. And the day their pictures appeared In the Free Press the excite ment started.

Their Uncle Kasper Hachlgian hurried in to see what he could do for them. Then the door flew open again and their stepbrother, George Arakelian, of 2296 Woodmera came to help. They had callers every day and they learned that friends had started to search for their father. Sunday they got the most exciting news their relatives were going to take them to a farm near Richmond, And every day they were going to have someone call to see them and perhaps. If the assurances of their relatives were correct, it would not be many days before their father would return for them.

The verdict was greeted by loud cheers from the spectators who had watched the progress of the trial during the last week. Corne lius wept and was embraced by( (jnaries rsarueit, aeiense counsel.

Although still under indict-rnent for a second similar charge, he Is free on personal bond and was not rearrested in the court room. Assistant Prosecutor Chester 'P. O'Hara, who handled the case, said that unless forced to by Cornelius he would not start the second trial until Ross Skener, wanted as a witness, is located. The trial was concluded with another clash between O'Hara and Judge Edward J. Jeffries which have featured the sessions and attracted a large gallery.

Changing the usual procedure. Judge Jeffries started to charge the jury before the attorneys had made their final arguments. O'Hara Voices Protest want to gay something about entrapment," the judge started. O'Hara leaped to his feet "If Your Honor is going to charge the Jury I'd like to say something first." "Sit down O'Hara!" yelled Jude Jeffries, and continued giving the Jury an explanation of Cornelius' defense that he was trapped by Capt Ira Marraon, of the State Police, and Peter Stone, star State witness, into committing the crime with which he was charged. "Keep in mind that the attempt to secure heirs to escheated estates is a legitimate business on the part of attorneys.

Moreover, it is a legitimate means of capitalizing on a situation ethically and professionally. If Cornelius sought a legitimate heir and Peter Stone and the authorities secured different and spurious heirs for the purpose of entrapping him and Cornelius accepted the trap, even if he knew the heirs were spurious he is not guilty because It is against the law for authorities to trap a man into committing a crime," the judge said. Statement Bouses Attorney The statement of the judge that the United States Supreme Court had ruled thus on entrapment again brought O'Hara to his feet with an objection. A recess was called and the argument was continued in the judge's office where O'Hara cited a ruling in a case in 1895 reversing the one cited by Judge Jeffries, which was in 1878. "I know all about that case, O'Hara, and I don't want to listen to you.

Get out of here without another word or I'll take the short ut," the judge answered. He referred to his several threats to cite the prosecutor for contempt of court during the trial. He then continued his charge. Cornelius finished his testimony early Saturday and both sides rested after hearing three minor witnesses who followed him.
