COFFIN, Circuit Judge.
Petitioner’s appeal from the district court’s denial of his petition for habeas corpus relief — 263 F.Supp. 535 (D.Me. ■1967) — challenges the voluntariness of a confession given by petitioner which contributed to his conviction for the murder of an eleven year old girl. 1
The murder, confession and trial having occurred in 1955, the state is not held to the standards of conduct laid down in Escobedo v. Illinois, 378 U.S. 478, 84 S.Ct. 1758, 12 L.Ed.2d 977 (1964), and Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 86 S.Ct. 1602, 16 L.Ed.2d 694 (1966). Johnson v. New Jersey, 384 U.S.…
