SKELETON MYSTERY
SCRAP OF SILK MAY GIVE CLUE Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH, To-day. Has a piece of Fuji silk a few inches long any association with the mystery provided by the discovery of human remains among the sandhills at North Brighton?

The bones found are obviously those of a small child with flaxen hair, but it has not been possible as yet to determine whether the child was a girl or a bov. An inquest was opened yesterday before Mr. IT. P. Lawry, S.M.. coroner, and adjourned after the hoy, 'John O'Lve had described the finding of the body and of the white rag tied to the busix.
