Mrs Chadwick arraigned as bonds set at 15 000
Mrs Chadwick appeared weak at the Federal Building as arraignment before Commissioner Shields was delayed for bonds. Assistant U.S. District Attorney Baldwin sought 23 000, counsel Carpenter argued 10 000, and the bond was set at 15 000 with a December 17 continuance. A photographer’s flash caused Mrs Chadwick to collapse in the corridor, aided by her son. Warden Prynn stated she will be jailed in a separate second tier cell with limited contact, and she will be treated like other United States prisoners. Attorney Ryall expressed sympathy and said they would pursue a receiver in Cleveland for the Newton claim while investigating notes and signatures related to the case.
