He is eager to relay the details of the incident with as much accuracy as possible.

Explanation:

"Trifle" is the play about the investigation of the murder of John Wright.

When County Attorney, Sheriff, Mr. Hale enters Wright's house to investigate the murder mystery of John Wright, Mr. Hale narrates his visit to their house the previous night.

Mr. Hale recounts his visit in a very precise manner by accurately pointing out the location of his standing at the door and the position of Mrs. Wright, who was sitting on the rocker. He did so because he want to give the details with accuracy. Another reason for this accuracy is because they are there to investigate a murder case so much accuracy and precision is required.

This reveals that Hale was eager to give details with much accuracy and precision.
