MINKOLA. March 10. With a
smile on her face, .Mrs. Mary Eliza
beth Wells walked out of the court
room early today, a free woman. Just
before midnight she was acquitted of
the murder of Captain James M. Pot-
tit, with whom she ltvod at Massa
pequa Inn. which he kept. . .
The Jury was out about five hours.
Mrs. Wells' acquittal followed
closely two convictions of women
charged with hnvlng slain men with
whom they had been Intimate. In
each case the trial Jury was chosen
because of a professed ability to Judge
testimony against women charged
with murder with their heads rather
than their hearts.
Her two predecessors, Mrs. Lillian
Raizen nnd Mrs. Pauletto Raludes,
unlike Mrs. Wells, admitted having
shot their victims to death. but
pleaded Justification and mental in
stability. At all times Mrs. Wells
maintained that she did not shoot
Captain 1'ettlt.
The basis of her defense was that
nho had no reason to punish rtuui.
Her lovo for him was too great, she
pleaded.
Miss Helen MeCormlek, ono of Mrs.
Wells' attorneys, told the Jury the
state had not established a motive
against her client. Tho beatings Cnp
tain Pettlt hart given her had been
cited, it was shown that ho had
taken all her savings, $7,000 and
squandered them, and frequently in
delirium threatened to kill her.
