Hartman Seeks New Trial in Adams County Murder Case
George J. Benner argued for Philip A. Hartman of Annville in a bid for a new trial after Hartman was condemned for the murder of trooper Francis L. Heley. The defense claimed involuntary confession due to four hours in police custody and cited a new law letting juries decide between death and life imprisonment. Judge McPherson took the matter under advisement for a later ruling.

Conspirator Sentenced After Smuggling Hacksaws
Roy Diamond pleaded guilty to attempting to smuggle 12 hacksaw blades to Philip A. Hartman. Hartman had been convicted of first degree murder and jailed in Gettysburg, with Diamond receiving a sentence of one to two years in the Eastern Penitentiary. The court rejected Diamond’s challenge to Hartman’s verdict, noting it was not his place to judge the conviction.
