He recounts Brandenburg's efforts to trap AFL leaders and details meetings and notes. The narrative frames the effort as an attempt to discredit Gompers and foster labor-employer conciliation.

Reading Anger and Gompers Talk Turbulent Plot
In a lengthy extract the Gompers version recounts Brandenburg pressing for a confession and offering financial security if Gompers betrayed labor leaders.

Hale visiting, local residents traveling, and a funeral service for Mother Tonne.
