WOMAN SAW LARGE
MAN ATTACKING
SMALL MAN
Testimony In Richards Murder
Case at NeWfane
WIDOW WAS ON The STAND
She Couldn't Tell When She Was
Married and Admitted ConVic-
ton For Larceny.

Newfane, Oct. 29.-Mrs Mary Puff
Field. widow Of George l.. Field, for
whose alleged murder Almon NJ.
Richards of Bellows Falls is now on
trial in Windham County court here,
and Dr.. b. II. Stone, state patholo-
gist, were the principal witnesses on
the second day OF the trial.
Mrs. Field told the story OF the al
tercation between Field and Richards
substantially as it was told yester-
day by George Lawrence, boarder
at the Field restaurant who claimed
to have Witnessed II.
On cross examination by T. w. Mo
lcney of Rutland Mrs. Field admitted
that she could not remember where
and when or by whom she was mar
ried to Field and had no proof. She
admitted that she had been convict
ed Of larceny at Keene, n. H., and
she would not confirm statements
she had made in court at Bellows
Falls. She was unable TO describe in
detail how Richards had struck her
husband.
Dr. Stone testified that the autop-
sy showed a fracture of the skull
and emorrhage OF the brain. illus.
trating to the jury with marked
skull and a portion of Fields brain.
In D. Stones opinion the results
were caused by violence to the right
side of the head and he believed that
death resulted from those conditions
but on cross examination he gave
the opinion that the blow on the
right side of the head was one Of
greater violence than could have
been caused with fist.
This the defense considered a
point for the reason that at the pre-
lminary hearing an officer testified
that he heard a disturbance in the
Field apartment several hours after
the alleged assault of Richards.
The state presented witness this
afternoon, Mrs. Daniel Doyle of
Brattleboro, who knew none of the
parties concerned whose testimony
nettled the defense. She testified
that she was passing the Field res
taurant when she saw a man enter,
grab small man or a boy and the
latter disappeared from her sight
The witness testified that she saw
the large man slap a woman. A Sc
we're cross examination could not
shake her evidence.
d. Charles f. Whitney, assistant
to DR.. Stone, testified that Fields
skull was thinner than the average
and more liable to fracture. DR. j.
II. Blodgett and Dr. j. 5. Hill of
Bellows Falls were other witnesses
who attended Field and were pres
ent at the autopsy.
