The Murder near Oamaru.
(P.eb Pbess Association.)
Alexander Beattie was charged at the Magistrate's Court with the murder of Sarah Adams at Papakia on or about the 10th of June. The eridence adduced so
far is the very same as that given at the inquest last week. Sergeant-Major Thompson, in opening the case, said he would produce evidence that the weman was alive on the 10th of June, when Beattie went home, and he said that the theory was that the prisoner murdered her that night, and that he buried her the following night when he left the hotel, where he had a bed. The case is likely to last two or three days.
