Appleton Double Murder Sparks Maine Death Debate
A Lewiston man held in 27000 bail, amid Lewiston and Gardiner reports, as Maine faces a surge of violent crime. Bradford Knights, accused of killing Mamie Small in Lewiston, remains silent. Across Appleton and Ashington, Mrs Heysler and daughter were slain, husband Albert Heysler wounded, arousing strong public reaction to capital punishment. George W. Pierce faces multiple charges of attempted murder and libel, with revealed distilling gear at his Howe street home. Maud Warren, linked to Pierce, pleads not guilty and posts bail.
