SUPPOSED POISONING
(3Y ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH —COPVRIGHT). Hodart, April 22. A case of suspected murder is being investigated here. It appears that a man named Beswick and his child died three weeks ago at Oampbelltown, it being supposed from eating tinned fish ; it has now been ascertained that Mrs Beswick shortly before their death had purchased a quantity of Rough on Rats, and the investigation by the police proves that the child died from arsenic poisoning and the man from some irritant poison. The inquest is proceeding.
