The defense produced some evidence
that Crowley was qusrrelsome man when
under the Influence Of liquor. which was
rebutted by several witnesses on the part
OF the state who had seen him intoxicated
and he was inclined to be clownish rather
than qusrrelsome.

murder when one OF them ceased and the
other continued on some rods to 9

sIivers were taken out OF the scalp wound
by the man who first washed it out, and
that they were beech wood. There was
evidence that there was pile OF wood by
the side Of the road near the body, and
the defense showed that there were chips

that time.
