She died on the 20th June, 1881. The body was taken to the morgue. Di Goldshoro will perform the post mortem examination of the body, and forward the stomach to the Government analyist, Mi Pond. The police, pending the result ol the analysis, have not interfered with Mi Hedges, who bears a good character with his neighbours. He is a tailor bv trade. " The suspicion rests entirely upon most improbable statements made by his daughter, which she has delayed making for an unaccountably long time, and they lack, as yet, any kind of corroboration.
