Dr. Carmsn Loyal to wife.
Nothing has more interested Freeport
In this singular case than the attitude OF
Dr. Carman. His loyalty to his wife. his
steady support OF her story. has been
eager and unfiinchng from the first de-
spite the admitted quarrels. the confessed
Jealousies. and the fact that the situation
between him and Mrs Carman had been
so stra lined that ne was obliged to COM
mand her to keep out of his office when
patients were calling.
There is something about the person.
allty OF the main figures In the tragedy
OF Freeport that grips the interest. THE
SrS has described Mrs. Carmsn for the
remarkable woman she is. unusually
handsome. Of queenly bearing and OF
steady courage under frightening strain.
But the doctor is hardly less worthy Of
comment. He is man who laughs. He
goes through the world laughing. He
laughed when hts wife harassed him with
Jealous TRADES He laughed when he
heard about the photograph that she set
in his Office And now he laughs when he
says with the utmost postiveness that
there has been no trouble between him
and Mrs. Carman for long time-that
matters with them have been rosy
All Freeport is talking OF his testimony
at the inquest yesterday 1t was perfect
~ apparent to even the dullest Of by
ISLANDERS what Prosecutor Smith was try
ing to ger~s;. In calling DIR. Carman first
to the witness chair and besieging the doc
tor with a multitude OF questions concern
ing Mrs. Carman's whereabouts and move
ments on the night OF the murder none
doubted that he planned TO draw from the
doctor statements or admissions that
would be in sheer contradiction OF what
Mrs. Carman would say later But as a
matter OF fact the doctor went straight
ahead with his testimony easily and natu'
rally, not assuming to know too much
not admitting that he knew too little and
the result was that Or. Carman's story
and Mrs Carman's story dovetailed in ali
essentials.
