MAINE MAN MURDERED.
W. A. Maxfield, Whose Wife is a
Bucksport Girl, the Victim.

W. A. Maxfield, former student at the
University of Maine, and the East Maine
Conference seminary at Bucksport, and
whose wife was formerly Miss Alice Snow,
of Bucksport, was brutally murdered at
Pando. COL, on Dec. IA last, while wait
ing for train to take him to Gypsum,
Colo, where he resided, to attend the
funeral OF his father.
The murder was committed by a man
named Burns, who admitted the deed and
said he was promoted to do it because he
was 'hungry and broke".
Mr.. Maxfield and two other men were in
the depot waiting for the train, when a
masked man walked in and ordered them
to throw up their hands, which they did.
He then ordered the agent to give over his
money and watch. The agent did net
move fast enough to suit the robber, who
shot twice, one shot grazing the agents
ear.
After making the men give up their
money, the -obber ordered them to walk
up the track ahead of him, apparently
with the object Of making his escape more
~AAsSA SoAhS way tne aReuI
told the robber that he had to 60 back
and flag train in order to avoid wreck.
The robber told him to go back but to keep
his damned fingers off the key".
Mr.. Maxfield, being hard Of hearing,
turned to walk back also, probably think
ing he was to be turned loose, too, when
the robber hit Mr.. Maxfield on the head
with his revolver, knocking him down.
The robber then started on with the other
two men, but after going a few steps,
turned and walked back and shot Mr..
Maxfield in the neck. At the coroner's
inquest it was found that he was dead be-
fore being shot, the blow on the head
having broken the skull and killed him.
Mr.. Maxfield was born in Bryant's
Pond, March 20, 1875. He married
in Portland, Nov. %, 1898, Miss Snow,
whom he met as a student at the seminary.
With his family he moved to Colorado in
1901, and located at Gypsum, about two
years ago. Two children Donald, aged
thirteen, and Vida, aged three, and his
widow, besides brother. F. H. Maxfield,
and his mother, Mrs. Sarah Moore, of
Delaware, O.. survive

Capt. o. A. Crockett Dead.

Capt. Oscar A. Crockett, well known as q
steamboat captain, especially along the
Rockland- Bluehill route, which he estab-
iished, died Thursday at his home in Rock
land, aged sixty-seven years. He leaves a
widow and six children.
The death Of Capt. Crockett marks the
passing OF one OF Names est-known
steamboat men. He was born at South
Thomsston in January, 1915. During the
Dix Island boom he commanded the little
steamer Fire Fly and packets. This was
prior to 1874. Later, for four years, he
made coasting voyages.
From 1878 to 1881 he was in Gen. Davis
Tillson's employ, running the steamers
Hurricane and Hercules. In 1881 he en-
gagged in his most important steamboat
enterprise, the Bluehill line, which he
developed to such an extent that it Is to-
day one link in an important system.
Capt. Crockett ran the Henry Morrison
on this line until 1887, when the steamer
commanded two years. In 1880 the line
was put on . new basis, with the steamer
Florence in operation. Capt. Crockett
built the steamer Juliette in 1892, and in
the following year he built and placed in
commission on the same line the steamer
Catherine.
The importance Of the summer traffic
between Rockland and Bluehill was not
lost upon the Eastern Steamship Co., and
in 1904 the route was purchased by the
latter corporation. The services OF Capt.
Crockett were retained, however, and his
active steam boating continued until the
spring OF 1911, when be retired on account
OF ill health.
