Witnesses are befing rounded up and other pre paratlons concluded for the trial of Mrs. Elsie Hobbs Raymond, which is scheduled to begin in the Kennebec county court here next Monday. .Mrs. Raymond is to be tried on a charge of murdering Mattie Hackett the mystery of whoBe death has re mained unsolved for more than sev en years. The murder was so mys terious and atrocious that it roused the whole state of Maine. (Mattie Hackett was the young daughter of Levi Hackett of the town of Readfteld. She wag known to everyone in the rural community In which she lived and was about to be-, come a bride. It was lust after sup per time on the evening of August 17, 1906, that Mr. Hackett asked his daughter to get some food for a young tramp who had asked for sup per and a night's lodging. Mattie Hackett was wiping the dishes. The father and the tramp started out to the barn to feed the cattle. leaving the daughter to get the tramp's meal. The other members of the Hackett family were spending the evening at a neighboring farm house down the road. The supposition is that soon after the father and the tramp left for the barn the young woman was called from her home by some person and accompanied that person to a point about 100 yards from the door. On the return from the barn Mr. Hackett and the tramp heard an outcry and hastening to the spot found the young woman strangling. They carried her to the house and sum moned aid. It was several moments before a cord was discovered drawn tightly about Miss Hackett 's neck and It was found she was dead. Farmers beat the bushes and cornfields about the Hackett home for several days in an effort to find the persons who were supposed to have committed the crime. The young tramp was never accused of having any share In plan ning or carrying ont the murder, al though he was held in the local jail for several days as a witness. Suspicion soon fell upon .Mrs. Ray mond, an aeouaintance of the mur dered girl, who was believed to have been jealous of her. Mrs. Raymond and her husband gave an account of their movements on the evening of the crime which established an alibi that the state could not find evidence enough tq destroy. The grand Jury at that time failed to return an in dictment. At various times the attorneys i the state attempted to review the evidence and gather new evidence sufficient to warrant the indictment of somebody, but nothing definite was done until the grand jury met last Apr'! and returned an indictment against .Mrs. Raymond, charging he: with the murder. The arrest of Mrs Raymond after seven years of veiled insinuation and suspicion made n sensation throughout this section o .Maine. Since her arrest the woman has Leon irn'i'lcd in jail heie. Mrs. Raymond and her family ap !. n wlco'iie the :irosuc of a trial and express themselves as cer tain oi aeon iv. ben i. ayinond. hus band of the accused woman, will bi a leading witness for the defense. It is supposed that the state will en cleaver to prove that Raymond ? friendsh'i for the murdered yir! aroused Mrs. Raymond's jealousy an: Berved as a motive for the alleged murder. r mi, uv i r iw HULL UMBRELLAS DETACHABLE INTERCHANGEABLE HANDLES For Sale At SIEGRIST&Co.
