Defends Juror Pfaff as Thaw Case Sends Notes to DA
Rumors swirl about juror Pfaff in the Thaw trial claiming he sent letters to District Attorney Jerome while Evelyn Nesbit Thaw visits the Tombs. Pfaff denies reading the story and defers to Jerome, who confirms no statements were true, aside from a Garden Company connection with James C Young. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw visits the Tombs, cheerful, sends notes, and receives long replies from Harry Thaw, who remains in custody and may not file bail until counsel disputes are settled and mother approves selections.
