Randall murder motive remains elusive in Greenfield
Nearly a week passes with no clear motive in the Randall murder. Detectives rule out a simple robbery link and pursue possible connections to Woodward and Thompson. New leads place the suspects near West Deerfield and Chapman street, while a past Turner's Falls house may tie to threats against Randall. Mortgage on the murder site and a hunt near a cemetery add to the intrigue amid doubt over poisoning rumors. Dickens Pickwick Papers offered at five cents.
