Shephard Testifies About Lorimer Bribe Claim at Capitol
In Chicago on October 1 Representative Henry A. Shephard testified before the senatorial inquiry that Lorimer asked him to vote for him at the joint session election and promised the postmastership as the only possible influence. He said he voted for Lorimer in expectation of that promise and denied accepting money, noting the absence of a $900 bribe from Bob Wilson. He defended his friendship with Lorimer and Browne, insisting he acted to expose influence rather than harm Lorimer.
