Spanier, told a romantic story. After the price was furnished of a hundred thousand francs Spanier met Gutwirth at the First Avenue Hotel. The other prisoners were mysteriously introduced and tried to persuade him to come to a private house. Spanier refused, and finally Grizzard engaged a room in the First Avenue, locked and bolted the door and produced the necklace. Spanier described how he simulated anger and complained of being humbugged in order to hasten the deal.
CroBS-examined, he said one time he, Quadradßtein and Brandstatter were in the room with Silverman and Grizzard. and could have screamed for assistance and secured the necklace immediately. He preferred to Bbide by Price's instructions and purchase two pearls. Finally he gave accused ten minutes' start to enable them to escape.
