Boston, Dec. 19.-The Post says ::
Judge Daniel w. Bond. who presided
at the Leblanc trial, last night to a
Post reporter named the persona
woman-who in his opinion murdered
Clarence F. Glover.
He also declared his belief thaE
Hattie Leblanc knew who killed Clio
yer, although he was emphatic in his
belief in her innocence. He did
think she was in the laundry at the
time of the shooting and he beileves
she knows who fired the fatal shot.
There is ground for believing,
Judge Bond said, that when Hattie
returned to the Glover house from the
laundry Mrs. Glover suggested that it
was best for her to hide until she
could be got away
He declared Hattie Leblanc to be
absolutely immune from prosecution
as an accessory to the murder of
Clarence Glover, in event any other
person should be named as the one
who actually did the shooting.
Continuing his discussion of the ia
nous murder mystery Jndge Bond in
timated that his belief in Uattie's in
nocence is so strong that he would
have set the verdict aside had the
jury brought in verdict OF guilty.
He said that he felt that nothing
had been brought out in the trial to
justify further action by tie govern
ment, and that the whole matter
might as well be dropped.
