State’s Attorney Declines to
Make Public Document
Found on Body.
87 the Associated Press.
SNOW HILL, Md„ February 12.—A
brief diary kept by Clarence J. Trader
la the days before he was found dead
In the home of his estranged wife fig
ured today in the investigation into his
death.
State’s Attorney Thomas F. Johnson
Admitted that he had the diary, found
on Trader’s body, but he declined to
make public more than part of it.
The entry of December 31, he said,
contained a notation that Trader
spent the night “at home.” This was
several weeks after the man separated
from Mrs. Jeannette Trader, who is
'charged with his murder. The entry,
Johnson said, did not specify at which
home the man stayed.
Another entry was the address of a
Wilmington, Del., aviator, the State’s
attorney added.
Johnson said he did not plan to
make any investigation of the death
of Samuel Massey, found shot in
Trader's power plant early in 1933,
but that he would be glad to call it
to the attention of the March grand
jury. He said, however, that he was
confident the grand jurors would take
no action in the Massey death, which
was officially called a suicide at the
time.
Two of the members of the coroner’s
Jury said they did not believe Massey
had committed suicide, although they
agreed in the verdict at the time.

In the Hunt Country
Activities Among the Horse-Lovers of
Virginia and Maryland.
%
BY NINA CARTER TABB.
IDDLEBURG HUNT met at
the “Pot House” yesterday
with a comparatively small
field. The meet was not until
1 p.m. on account of the ground being
frozen, but by that time it was in good
condition. Louie Leith was helping
whip hounds and added greatly to the
pleasure of those out. They drew
across Benton (the master, D. C.
Sands’, place) and went on to the
section of Walter Goodvfin’s farm re
cently bought by Freddy Warburg.
Here a fox was started that ran
straight across country to the William
Hitt place, crossed Goose Creek onto
the Mackenzie Tabb farm, ran en
tirely across that, up through the con
vict camp field on Cromwells Run and
crossed the pike at Cattle Scales lane.
After going up this road a little way
the fox turned left onto Raymond
Guest's place, ran over this to the
Lake place and then to the Walter
Woolfe farm. There it jumped into
the sand and clay road onto Paul
Llewellyn’s farm, turned right handed
and ran back to the Guest place. The
fox then circled back to the Lake
place, covered the same territory in
another big circle and ran to Rattle
Snake Mountain, where he was put
in after giving the field an hour and
three-quarters run which was most
exciting.
Among those enjoying the day were
Mrs. W. J. Donovan, Mrs. Charles
Sabin, Miss Connie Regan, Miss Laura
Sprague, Miss Frances Frick. Miss
Jennie Green, Miss Bettina Belmont,
Mrs. Silvie Hazzard, Harry Worcester
Smith, Dr. Charles Alexander Hatfield,
Turner Wiltshire, Forrest Dishman,
Duncan Briggs, Baylis Grimes and
Jack Skinner.
Dr. Charles Alexander Hatfield of
Philadelphia is spending several weeks
in Middleburg and hunting with dif
ferent packs of hounds. He is visiting
Harry Worcester Smith in his apart
ment in the Ilsley House and is using
Paul Mellon’s mounts.
