curious persons recognizing her
/ congregated and stared at her. Sew
ersl automobiles containing sight
seers slowed up and Mrs. Hall turn
ed and walked back to her home
She has not been to the Church o.
st. John the vangelist since the day
Of Halls funeral.
A small sensation was created
among fhe church members yester-
day hen it was unofficially announc.
ed that Mrs. Hall stated her intention
OF resuming' her Sunday school work
soon after Christmas. To one oi
the vestrymen Of the church who
ny the way is relative, she said
she wished il announced among her
former pupils that she would he
back to teach her class again after
the Christmas season.
Charlotte Mills one of Mrs. Hairs
former Sunday school pupils. will
not return to her class. Since the
murder Charlotte has not entered
the church saying that with her
mother and Mr.. Hall absent the
place seems totally foreign. jim
mie Mills. husband of slain victim
and father OF Charlotte. goes to the
church daily and with his charac-
teristic ease works about the place
lust as he did before the tragedy.
He enters the rectors study and the
choir room and guild room without
tremor.
Jimmie was AT the church yester-
dav and discussed the case with sew
eral reporters. He is always willing
10 talk about the case and lately has
begun to theorize about various
phases OF It.
Members Of the choir will give
testimony relating 10 the affairs of
the choir, the attitude Of Hall TO-
ward the choir singers other than
Mrs. Mills on At least one occasion
and the conduct of one member OF
the choir and a man relative about
the time OF the murder
There ic reason 20 believe that
Wilbur A. Mott. spec al Deputy At
has unearthed some
material that has not been made
public. Yesterday Mr.. Motifs chief
aid. Lieut.. James F. Mason with
some of the State troopers. were In
town checking up some Of this new
evidence. They made another sur
vev Of the scene or the crime and
the Phillips farm. One new chsrac-
Ter mentioned as probable witness
before the Grand Jury lives nearer
to the Phillips farm than to New
Brunswick.
The fact that Mrs. Hall is not TO
have her request granted was learn
ed from as high an authority AS
there is in the case. IT has been be-
Iieved for some days that Mr.. Mott
would not permit Mrs. Hall 10 testi-
". even II she did waive immunity,
IS she was ready to do.
Louise Geist and Barbara Tough,
Hall servants. are to he called after
Hayas and it is Likely that the mem
hers of the choir and Ralph V. Gors-
line will follow. There is talk that
Edwin Carpenter. cousin Of Mrs.
Hall is to he called and that Mrs.
lane Gibson will also testify today. /
Az far as can be learned +
Edwin Carpenter ha not been sub 3
,oenaed and with all the choir sing
RS and other witnesses TO examine
I Is doubtful whether Mrs. Gibson
will he reached before Tuesday.
Highly important evidence is con
aimed in the handful Of letters writ
en- by Mrs. Mills which were strewn
bout the two bodies. These letters
we're 'photogra phed for fingerprints.
nd some unusual results were OBJ
aimed. II has been esta ablished that
hese letters were not carried to the
Gene OF the murder by either Han
r. Mrs. Mills hut were in the pos
ession OF a tn rd person. who either
ersonally placed them on the bodies
r had this done.by others. "A
Information comes from reliable
ource that the letters were pilfer-
from the secret letter box in the (
hurch by person who had been
pving upon the couple for some
me.
This fact will establish definite
ase for questioning one particular
illness who has been summoned 10 ,
,u his story. This man, 1t was s
armed had been called to account {
!, Hall a few weeks before the muir {
or. Hall had heard~he was paying
,nsiderable attention to certain ;
,emhers OF the choir. and several s
2 the members of the congregation {
ent to him about the matter. Han
once sent for this man and told 7
i'm what had been reported to him
nd cautioned him. The man in
1estion has a wife and family. II
said that there were bitter words J
etween this man and the rector at .
,e time. but matters were smOothed 5
YER and the incident forgotten.
1t appears. too. that within a fort :
ght OF the killings Hall had occa- !
on to become ,incensed at the sc- n
on OF several choir embers who :
ughed aloud at an evening SER ,
ce. Hall made this the subject OF !,
sermon and then personally spoke :
the members Of the choir about
Mrs. Mills was not one Of those
no had laughed. and when the =
king to by Hall was finished sew
al women Of the choir approached .,
ar and s'id:
"Of course you didn't do anything ,
80 that! You're too good"
They then talked among them ,
Ives and said plainly that they "
ought Hall had been urged to a
AXE these remarks and that Mrs. u
ills knew he was going to preach u
'out the behavior Of the choir s.
embers. u
