INFANTS’ HOMES.
A JURY’S RIDER. Dunedin, March 13. A rider to the effect that the Government might with advantage appoint a medical officer to attend children in licensed homes for infants was added by the jury to their verdict at the inquest on a six-months-old child who died in an infant home in South Dunedin. The jury came to this conclusion because it was pointed out that in many cases the patients in these homes are children of poor parents, who cannot afford adequate medical attendance. The keeper of the home, therefore, very often has to pay doctors ’ fees out of her own pocket.
