The Child Murder Case
[PKB UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION.] AvcKiiAND, This Day. Kosina Smith still maintains the strictest silence regarding her antecedents, and refuses to give any information regarding the father of the child. The police hare discovered that some months ago she was employed in a hotel at Cam* bridge, Waikato. Amongst her effects a small bottle of laudanum has been found. A gentleman, when talking to the prisoner, heard the child cry and saw it move in her arms. This was at 7 o'clock, and at 20 minutes past 7 the prisoner was back at Wakeham's, a good ten minutes' walk from Mason's gardens. The police theory consequently is that she buried the child alive.
