She plead- ed "guilty" to the charge and was Temanded for two days for sentence. "The child which you abandoned had since died and you are now up on a very serious charge," said the Magistrate to the accused, hefore re- manding her, It appears tha April 28th the to the home of t on the evening of | accused pald a visit | t Elias Thompson, who | resides at 6 Vine street. Upon ringing the bell skié left a small bundle on the steps and made her escape, When the people in the house made an investigation they found that the bundle contained a baby aged about seven days. She| left a note with the child, advising | the people of the house to care for it, . The child was very well dressed and appeared to be ill. When the mother could not be located, Mr. Thompson communicated with the police, who turned the case over to W. H. Wyllie, Inspector for the Children's Aid Society. Mr. Wyllie got Mr. Thompson to take eare of the child, but it died on Monday night, It is thought that the child was "doped" before being placed on the steps, | ------ Died of Convulsions. When seen by the Whig Dr. Rich- ardson stated that the infaut son of Mrs. Bryon died of comvuisions. It] had been carefully attended, and in| his opinion did not suffer any as the | result of being left on the steps of | Mr. Thompson. It would likely have died anyway, therefore the only | charge against the mother is that | of desertion. | Women In Liquor Case. | Mrs. Elizabeth Keenan, a member | of the "prohibited list," appeared in | Police Court on Tuesday morning charged with being under the influ- | énce' of liquor, Since the 1st of| December Mrs. Keenan has been en- | deayoring to keep away from liguor. | After getting out of hospital on Sun- | day, she was very "dry" on Monday | morning and asked a woman to go and get her a bottle, which she did. | She paid the woman fifty cents for | the bottle and gave her in addition | purchase.
