Augusta. Me., Nov. 13. 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.

Specific Jlloocipoison
Everyone realizes that tin's disease id a blood infection of the most pow
erful nature, the virus of which so thoroughly poisons the corpuscles of
thccirculation that its symptoms are manifested over almost the entire
body. First comes a tiny sore or pimple, then the mouth and throat ul
cerate, glands in the proin swell, the hair begins to fall out, skin diseases
break out on the boc!y, and even the bones ache -with rheumatic pains.
Only a real blood purifier can have any curative effect on a blood poison so
powerful as this. S. S. S. is the greatest of all blood purifiers; it goes
into the circulaticn and by thoroughly cleansing the blood of every parti
cle of the insidious virus makes a permanent and lasting cure of Specific
Wood Poison. It you are suffering with this disease
SiPT'Jfi S. S. S. will cure you because it will purify your blood
C and enrich its health-promoting corpuscles. S. S. S. is
SCI so a'so'":t,jly c"fc '"""d certain in its results, that every-
"tar fei?t one may cure themselves at home and be assured the
cure will be permanent and lasting. S. S. S. is a purely
KEMED 1 vegetable remedy, being made entirely of roots, herbs
and barks, and it will certainly cure Specific Blood
Toison in all of its forms and stages. Home Treatment Book and medical
