Deputy Sheriff Brown arrested witness
on the night of the murder on suspicion
Witness had been in Jail in England
for drunkenness and in Jail in Bangor
for lighting. Had been working on a
farm for man named Cooley the past
summer for S13 month. Got $13 a
month also from the State.
The county attorney explained that
johnson had been detained as a witness
by the State. The attorneys had talked
with him about the murder and he had
told at least two weeks ago about hear
ing the mans voice and the woman's
voice. Had told the same story seven
years ago.
Atty. Morey read letter in which it
was claimed that Johnson had told
that Hackett ran out OF the barn with 4
rope while Johnson was there. That's
a dandy story" exclaimed the witness
did you talk with Levi Hackett two
weeks ago. asked Atty. McGincuddy.
Il talked with Mrs. Hackett in this
courtroom and also talked with Mr.
Hackett."
Heard Voices of Two Women.
"Saw Hackett the next morning after
the murder in front of his house, was
taken there by officers. Thought he told
the officers about the voices that morn
ing. Heard conversation of two women
after he heard the voices of the man
and woman. 1t was further on, nearly
a minute after he heard the man ask the
woman to go down the road. Heard
some mixed up conversation after that,
the man and woman seemed TO be
laughing and jolly.
Witness on cross examination by
County Attorney Williamson said that
when he first got to the Hackett home
he saw a black object six feet tall,
thought it was a woman at first then
1t spread out and looked like a buggy
Witness stated that after the holler-
ing Hackett came to him with a lantern
and said Come with me, someone has
murdered my daughter" He was afraid
then. Witness was sure he told the
same story about the voices seven years
ago.
