Sad to relate i understand that George Morphet murdered his wife Mabel , by hitting her over the head with a rolling pin, when taking her a cup of tea on 8 February 1965.

I am told that one of the first police officers on the scene - was my uncle PC Tyson.

At the subsequent Trial George Morphet was found unfit to plead. He spent his remaining years in Garlands (hospital) Carlisle
