Investigation into the murder of Dr. Edward W. Hall and choir leader Mrs. James Mills focused on the rector’s home.

Mrs. Hall’s lawyer vows all possible means, including a court order, to protect her and to seek light on the Phillips farm killings near the city on September 4. The widow later collapsed from nervous strain at her New Brunswick home and is under a physician’s care.
