Murder Trial Looms In Readfield Case For Mattie Hackett

Mrs Elsie Hobbs Raymond will surrender to Sheriff Richardson for her murder trial of Mattie Hackett, seven years after the crime. The case draws crowds as witnesses and relatives arrive from Boston and Maine and the courtroom is set in Augusta. Crown and defense assemble noted lawyers as key exhibits have disappeared, including the cord and shoes linked to the night of the murder. The trial opens Tuesday at 10 AM with Att Gen Pattangall and County Attorney Williamson prosecuting and Daniel J McGillicuddy leading the defense before Chief Justice White.
