Blackhander Gets Three Year Term
Frank Seiler of Owosso was sentenced to three years in a federal prison in Atlanta by Judge Arthur L. Tuttle for sending a blackmailer letter via the mails to A. D. Bell of Owosso Sugar Co. The note demanded 10 000 dollars and bore the signature The Black Hand Gang. Seiler, born in Czechoslovakia and in the U S 12 years, admitted taking Bell’s name from a telephone book. He was captured after attempting to collect the money and jailed at Bay City, where an escape attempt with another prisoner was thwarted after three hours by a sheriff. The judge urged immigration authorities be notified and a deportation recommendation made. In a separate incident, Charles Diller of Middleton attempted suicide in Gratiot county jail by cutting his throat with a tobacco can and then leaping from bunks, twice, to the cement floor.
