Lawyer Sees Soderquist in Bid for New Trial

The Rev. A. K. MacLennan and Dr. A. J. MacDonald of the First United Presbyterian Church on Berkeley Street aid J. L. Soderquist’s bid for a new trial.

Mackay & Mackay of Quincy have been retained to file, arguing his lack of full trial due to his plea. John D. Mackay believes new evidence will be presented and that Soderquist did not knowingly plead guilty.
