THE MURDER AT CARLISLE.
Friday. – The investigation into the circumstances connected with this horrible case of double murder by poisoning has just been brought to a close. The inquiry has occupied the coroner and jury several days, there being no fewer than nine adjournments, and the excitement that it has created throughout the whole northern part of England has been of a very intense character. The coroner having, in a very lengthened manner, summed up the whole of the facts of this extremely mysterious tragedy, the jury returned a unanimous verdict of “Wilful murder against John GRAHAM.” The coroner then made out his commitment for trial at the ensuing assizes, the superintendent of police being bound over to prosecute. – Globe.
