John Graig was wearing white shoes. The suspect who was wearing white shoes was carrying a yellow umbrella. Therefore, John Graig was carrying a yellow umbrella. The murderer was carrying an orange umbrella, so John Graig is not the murderer.
The suspect who was carrying a black umbrella has a wife named Mary. The suspect who was wearing brown shoes has a wife named Mary. The suspect who was wearing brown shoes is not the one who is 6 feet 2 inches tall. Therefore, one suspect has a wife named Mary, was carrying a black umbrella, was wearing brown shoes, and is not the one who is 6 feet 2 inches tall. But Fred Fox has a wife named Joyce, Bill Morrison is 6 feet 2 inches tall, Jack Alberts was wearing orange shoes, and John Graig was carrying a yellow umbrella. Therefore, the only suspect who could be this suspect is Larry Martin. Since Larry Martin was carrying a black umbrella, he is not the murderer.

Therefore, that one suspect is Bill Morrison. Since the murderer was carrying an orange umbrella and Bill Morrison was carrying an orange umbrella, he is the murderer.
