FENOVAL DENED EDTH MAYWELL Losing Plea, Defense Lays Plans for Second Trial on December 9. By the Associated Press. WISE, Va. November 24—Falling to win a change of venue, counsel for Edith Maxwell today laid plans for the defense of the dark-haired mountain school teacher when she is arraigned a second time in Wise County Circuit Court, charged with Kkilling her 52- year-old father, Judge Ezra T. Carter, who yesterday denied the defense motion, fixed the second trial date for December 9. Carolina Avenue southeast, 15 days. George W. McMahan, 1238 Oates street northeast, 30 days..

At the hearing on the venue motion place the State presented 15 witnesses to substantiate its contention there was no prejudice or ill will toward Miss Maxwell that would prevent her re- ceiving & fair trial. g The defense presented 69 affidavits 1n which residents of Wise County said they did not believe Miss Maxwell could obtain a fair hearing before jurors from the county. Seven wit- nesses offered similar testimony. Judge Carter emphasized that it ap- peared “only natural” to him that rel- atives of the deceased might have some “feeling” against the alleged murderer, who “in this case happened to be a daughter.” However, he said, “in Vir- | ginia when we call men into the jury box we have very few juries of which we need to have much fear as to their integrity.” Following the hearing, Earl Max- well, Edith’s brother, said they would return to Chesterfield County, where they have been making their home for the past two months, pending open- ing of the trial. Judge Carter was appointed by Gov. Peery to sit in the case for Judge H. ‘A. W. Skeen, who withdrew after de- fense counsel pointed out a previously unknown relationship between Miss Maxwell's, father and Judge Skeen. ‘Miss Maxwell has been free under bond since September, when the Vir- ginia Supreme Court of Appeals re- versed and remanded the first convic- tion which sentenced the teacher to ' 25 years in prison. The court held the evidence was insufficient to justify ‘ a first-degree murder conviction. She ' had spent 14 months in jail. Trigg Maxwell was fatally injured in his Pound, Va., cottage after what the State contends was an attack on him by Miss Maxwell. She testified at the first trial she acted in self-defense and struck her father with the heel of a shoe when he sought to whip her for staying out late. RECKLESS DRIVING.
