Robertson, on trial here in Circult Court for first degree murder. The State is trying to prove that Robertson, Bethesda building contractor, slipped out of the woods on the morning of July 7, 1927, and shot his friend, Edward L. Mills, #o death on the latter’s farm at Hunting Hill ‘With the preliminary sf out of the way, interest in the trial has con- siderably increased. The courtroom here was crowded this morning, with at least 50. persens, who were -unable (o obtain seats, standing in the aisles. Mrs. Bertha Mae Mills, widow of the man, was recalled to the stand this morning, but was not permitted to testify. Mrs. Mills was the last witness yesterday, and before leaving the stand declared that she thought Rob- erfson’s actions were “suspicious,” and added that she had not told the jury “all she knew.” Washington Men Testify.
