Bert went, and I waited for him until eleven o’clock when his friend came in and told me that Bert had been arrested and asked me to help him. I gave him what money I had and he gotaway. I found out that when Bert got to the office his friend handed him two or three pack- ages and asked him to take them to his wife. Bert started with them, but was arrested before he got out of sight.
