EXTRAORDINARY TRALES.AOSY IN NEW SOUTH
WD

The whole of the Australian colonies have handy
been horrified with the story of • tragedy which has occurred
at the North Shore, in New South Wales. The portionless
are shortly these. A little more than two months agee,
a man named Kinder, a teller in the City Etsok, Sydney.
was found lying is his hone', on the North Shoes,
shot through the temples. Shortly afterwards be
died, and at the inquest which was held on his remains, a
man named Bertrand (a dentist) and his wife pre endwise
to the effect that they had seen the demoted inflict the
wound on himself which caused his death. After • lapse
of time, however, circumstances transpired which caused the
police to arrest Mr. and Mrs. Bertrand and the wife of the
deceased man, on suspicion of having murdered Dim. Ie the
early part of the month the three were brought up at the
wate police-court, and evidence was then adduced ehich
wentr to show that Bertrand and the woman Kinder
had had adulterous intercourse for • long time before
the death of Kinder. Mrs. Harriet Kerr, the prisoner
BertrandD sister, stated that her brother told her that
Kinder did not shoot himself, but that ho (Bertrand)
bad shot him. The remainder of the evidenoil was of
• mast startling and disgusting kind, and went to show
that Bertrand bad contemplated the murder for weeks
prior to its being committed, and that Mrs. Kinder wee
ee
aware of his intention. Mn. Bertrand also made admissio
to the effect that she, acting under the coercion of her hoe-
bead, bad prepared poison for Kinder before his death.
The body wan suborn, d, bat the medical men who examined
it were not able to discover any traces of poison, either ia
the intestines or the tissues. The whole facts disclosed age
of • singularly disgusting nature, and one thing ueste.
blished beyond a doubt, and that is that Bertrand is &mon-
ster of depravity, who has committed mimes of so heinous
a nature that one's blood curdles even to think of them.
For instance, it was stated that he had made an attempt on
the virtue of his own sister ; and that he was in the habit
of administering chloroform to his patients and then vio-
latiog them. At the police court examinstioo. several
extract& were read frso a diary which he kept, and it
would almost seen from them that the man is insane. He
will shortly be tried before the Supreme Court, when his
wife will be admitted as Queen's evideuos against ire.
