She Foretold Where The Lindbergh Baby Would Be Found

"MAN EXECUTED

THE KIDNAPPER"

THE execution of Bruno Hauptmann merely ends one phase of the tragedy of the Lindbergh baby.

the America is now asking: How did Mary Carrita, medium, wife of the Rev. Peter Birrittella, know that the baby would be found in the thicket she so accurately described, five miles from the Lindbergh home?

How did she know other matters, days before the police? A special investigator in New York is seeking to answer these questions. She has seen the Birrittellas, whose extra- ordinary story, acceptable to spiritualists, is puzzling the hard- headed materialists in the case..

On Sunday, March 6, 1932, Mary was in the Rev. Peter's "Temple of Divine Power" in East 127th Street, New York City.

"But they sent for us at once. We went to Princeton, with a Bible.

"Wasn't. I scared," broke in Mary. "I had never been so far from home.".

They told me they were met by the Lindbergh lawyer, Colonel Breck- enridge, a man they knew as Mickey (presumably the contact man with the underworld) and questioned at length in an hotel.
