Reno Evening Gazette – March 14, 1935
CAMDEN NJ, March 14 (AP)- Everyone sighed with relief when Walter Baler, forty-three years old, was given a suspended sentence and left with the evidence.
He was accused of threatening to “blow up” Constable Edward Lewis of nearby Lawnside, with a stick of dynamite. As Assistant Prosecutor Isaac W. Eason displayed dynamite in evidence, it once nearly slipped from his hands.
As Barker, dynamiter for a contractor, was leaving, the prosecutor called:
“Here, take this with you.”
Baler calmly pocketed the evidence and walked out.
