SUSPICIOUS DEATH OF AN INFANT AT
DORCHESTER.
This (Mondaykalrtsrnoon an inquest was held before
U. Look. Fay., trooroner, touching the death of •
male child to w a young WOVVVII, named Eliza
Ilaskett, who lives with her permits in Friarplano,
hid given birth on Sunday WWWDLIWP
It seemed that during the time the last battery
of Artillery were here, the girl was in the
service of Dr: Wales. He suspected there WV/ some-
thing the matter with her, and eommunieated with her
parents. Mrs. Hackett says she questioned her daughter
on the subject, and she averred there was nothing the
matter with her. So the alien' passed. On the battery
leaving Dorchester, about two months ago, Elise
Haakett returned home. She has since lived
there, and gone out dressmaking. & month ago the
girl was poorly istd she wee sent to her sister's
at Yeovil, where ate remained • fortnight. It
was a rainy day: wheal she returned, and she got
wet Her illness LOOKIWIId, and Mrs. Hackett
treated her as suffering roes.f "chill." On Saturday
the girl was too unwell to go to work, and at night she
went to bed at eight o'clock, after putting her feet in
but water with mustard in it, taking two antibilions
pills, and a glass of hot brandy and water. She was ill
all night, and about three o'clock in the
morning got up, dressed with her sister's assistance.
and went into her mother's room. The father got
up and made a fire, and the girl lay on the bed. About
five o'clock in consequence of increased illness, Mrs.
Hideout, a woman looging in the house, was called up,
and Mr& Hackett desired her to put questions to her
with • view to finding out what was the matter, for,
she said, she did not know. His. Hideout told the girl
the girl she thought she was going to have • child, but
she replied "She didn't know." Jest before
six the woman sent Mr. Hmkett far Dr. Penton,
but be was unwell, and Dr. Good was called.
In the nieimitime Mrs. Hackett had brought down from
the girl's attic the bucket which had been used overnight,
saying she would empty the slope in the room where
the girl was, and tidy up the plasm. Mrs. Hackett
went downstairs, leaving only Mre. Hideout with the
girl. Merino from the bed, and sat upon the bucket,
where she remained five minutes. When Mrs. Hackett
returned to the room she was there, and she asked
why. The girl answered "It's all cm." "What's
over" said Mrs. Haakett, and the girl replied "The
child is born." Mr&Rideout said the child soughed
once she heard a sort of gurgling, but she
thought it was the water going down Its throat. Dr.
Good came, and found the child under the mother. It
was • toe child. He could not tell whether it was
torn alive without a post-mortem examina-
tion. The jury thought this should be ascer-
tained. They also questioned Mrs. Haakett, as a
married woman, and the mother of • dozen children,
whether she did not know the girl's state, but she
denied all knowledge of it The inquest waa adjourned
till Tuesday evi nine.
