Singleton to a term of 2-14 years, and that Dillinger iiad been told that if he would plead guilty and confess Hie crime, he would be given a light sentence.” “if you feel there has been some confusion resulting from the word court’ x x x I will be glad to place a copy of this letter in the hands of the press,” Williams said, quoting the letter.
