From the Paper:

"Through out Poe's story, one recognizes that the man, who is identified as the narrator, is a bit fanatical. One can tell this by the events in the story. The narrator looking at the man in his sleep, paying close attention to his eye, and the brutal way that the narrator killed the poor man, is just mere justification that this man is indeed crazy. But no matter how mad the man is, is the truth will always come to surface in the end because ones conscience will always play a role in finding the truth."
