The Prisoner's MccentriciUes, The people upon the faiiu and in the district appear to regard the prisoner's demeanour before thu murdir as queer and eccentric, and one or two thiuk it probable that his .brain may h.iv e bfen affected by ' tie ..accident already referred to. Of course this is the man's only possible defence, for the commis sion of the '■'murder by him is removed from the slightest shadow of doubt. Hack, a f*»n» TibJurer, who has worked along with the prisoner for the last two years, says that he was quiet, sober, and industrious. About ten days ago they were engaged in taking some posts I out of; tie Rronnd. when the! prisoner fell off a log bo was standing on into a gully. lie fell upoa the back of his head, and was | partially stunned. The fall pioduced an | abrasion of the skin, and the prisoner afterwards c.implaiued of pain there. He had frequent quarrels with his wife. He had not fieemed to be in good health of late. The Murdered Woman is described by those v:ho knew her as being slightly above the average statiue'of --her Tex. weil-mado, but not stout, and seemingly on the sunny side of 30. She hnd aca'stiuonc eye, and thismayjiave ter ded to give her a rather sour appbaranc?. It wag wsll known that the pair did not agree well together, but it h doubtful on whose side the fault lay. Mr Alfred Nathan'was at the farm on Sunday week, but did not observe anything unusual in the relations of husband and wifo. Crowley was then complaining of the effects ot his accident, and told Mr N*t inn that he hsid been taking mediciuc. Ho gives the man a good character for Stcadiaes3 and indu.triovtsnesr", and ex presses himself as astonished at the com mission of the crime. Mrs Crowley used to assist in the cooking when any vl the family were upon a visit to the estate, and she occasionally accompanied her hus band when lie came into town. A good many people appear to have known them by sight. ■t,y, The Inquest Was■ opened-at. 11 o'clock this morning before Captain KelUj District Coroner, and a jury composed principally of settlers from Howicic and vfc'nity. The prisoner was in charge of two constables, .and Sergeant Gamble (who had been selected by Superintendent Thomson for the duty tn account of his extenive local knowledge) conducted the investigation, 'lhere are not a great many witaesses to be examined, and it is hoped that the enquiry will be finished by the evening. An endeavour, at any rate, will be made to get through to night., ; ' • " ■ -:*
