MIIIIDEIt IN WATERFORD.—On Sunday morning last
the body of Edmond Cronican was found on a bye road
at Kilwaterraoy mountain. The back of the skull was
smashed in, and the left side of the face broken to
atoms. A verdict of wilful murder has been returned
against three persons, named William, Mary, and
lionora Conway. The alleged motive for the murder is,
that the deceased, Edmond Cronican, as caretaker, was
obliged to summon William Conway to petty sessions
twice within the last month for trespass of cattle.
