THE SYDNEY SENSATION.
VERDICT OF MURDER. Sydney, Sept. 27. The inquest on the unfortunate girl Nichols was resumed to-day, when a verdict of murder was returned against Sheridan, and that Thomas and Mrs Campbell were accessories before the fact. Seawell has been released. The medical witnesses were of opinion that the wound on the body was caused shortly before death, but they were unable to say whether death resulted from the shock or blood-poisoning, though the woman .could not have lived more than a few hours after the incision was made. To the medical officers it appeared as if the injuries were inflicted with a reckless s . regard to life, and there were no-^gns of the use of anesthetics. If nor; c were ÜBe( j tnev say the operation vnusb have been agonising.
