INVERCARGILL, Last Night.
INVERCARGILL, Night. The body of an infant was found at South Invercargill yesterday. It had been placed in a box which was buried two feet down. The discovery was due to a dog, which called attention to the spot by scratching and refused to leave the body. It was clothed, and had a cap on. The box and contents were removed to the hospital. The police have a clue to the matter. It is hinted that the affair will probably not be found of such a tragic nature as the mode of burial indicates.
