Death by Own Action Claimed in Letter to Crawford
A confusing manuscript describes Lieut Crawford as possibly death by his own hand or a related incident. A letter urged a friend to console his wife while authorities investigated his whereabouts and possible ferryboat involvement near Ware and Alexandra. The narrative ties Crawford to Washington, Navy Secretary roles, and a long career path, with speculation about his fate after a missing boat incident and a family distress surrounding his secretaryship.

Brown acknowledges paternity of two children. Love letters from Brown to the defendant are read. A 13,000 word hypothetical question to an expert alienist was planned for Monday by defense counsel.
