DEFENSE CLAIMS PAPER AT FAULT (Continued from First Page) “Yos” Willle Shows Interest. “What did Willle say the next day?” “I saw him washing his hands in the bathroom during the noon hour and said ‘She woke me out of a sound sleep.’ Willle was interested in reference to himself. “You eald you did not take a glass of water to Mrs. Hall on the night of the killings, why was that?" asked Case. “Thursday night was my night out, and someone else took it then,” the witness replied. She described St. Mary’s Guild of Mr. Hall's church as an organization “Just like the mother’s meeting” of | the Presbyterian church, only that the members were not married. Miss Tough spent several uncom- fortable minutes on the witness stand when she was asked by Case to name the women who she had heard gossiping of the love affair between the Rev. Mr. Hall and Mrs. Mills, | Nathes Towns Gossips. | d rather not,” said the former mald, laughing embarrassedly when pressed for the names.

Long pauses mark- | ed the giving of the names, and the | witness showed by her reluctance that she was spending the most un- every comfortable moments of all on the | witness ‘stand.

The state has contended that Mrs. Hall employed detectives to prevent her becoming involved as a suspect in the murders. Referring to Miss Tough's pre- vious testimony, telling how Di Mar- tinl had questioned her alone, al | o | tice didn’t ask her to “tell only the | I truth.” She said he had. The state prdsecutor, taking the witness again for re-direct examina- tion, asked her: “Did you have to until Christmas to get the truth?” Lights Not Unusual, The state prosccutor turned next to the former maid's statement that she had found the library lights on D! ¢ there about ten o'clock, the night of the slayings, after having had a day oft. She said there wis nothing unusual in the lights being on, with- out any members of the Hall family being seen in the house. The de- fense objected when the witness was asked to name any other Thursday night when she had found a similar condition, the prosecutor, in asking the question, repeating several timua the statement that no members of the family were in the house. The dcfense contended that it has mot | been proved that Mrs. Hall and Wil- | lie Stevens were not in the house, the maid only having said she had not scen them. Miss Tough then left the witness stand.
