THE NORTH LONDON MURDER.
TRIAL OF THE SEDDONS. (Press Association. —Copyriuht.) (Received March 12, 12.30 p.m.) LONDON, March 11. In the murder trial, Seddon was cross-examined for six hours. Asked in regard to the finding of only £4 10s in the deceased's trunk, whereas it contained £219 a few months before, he replied that working men had been in the room, including a window-cleaner. He admitted a want of frankness in concealing certain particulars regarding the property when communicating with relatives ; but he disliked their demeanour. How arsenic got into deceased's stomach was a Chinese puzzle. Mrs Seddon testified that she accidentally knocked the flypapers off the mantlepiece, and placed them in a soup-plate containing water. The plate remained near a window until the death of Miss Barrow.
