A CHILD POISONED SY ITS MOTHER.—A. shock-
ing child murder has just been committed is Suffolk. The
victim is • little boy, aged three years, named Frederick
Brown, the illegitimate child of a young woman named
Julia Brown, the daughter of • journeyman blacksmith at
Fekham, a village near Bury St. Edmunds, but who has
for some time put bees living in service is the adjacent
pariah of Brettenharn. It appears that the deceased lived
with his grandfather at Felsham, and the young woman last
week wept ever for the purpose of seeing her mother, who
was ill. She stayed one night, and shortly before she was
about leaving on the following morning, to return to her
11 saltation, the child was taken suddenly ill and became vio-
lently sick, and continued to get worse till about three
o'clock in the afternoon, when it died. A surgeon was
sent for, and saw it just before its death, sod as he was
unable satisfactorily to account for the decease, • post-
mortem examination was made. The stornaoh was found
to be filled with • dark gel►tinous fluid, and was
perforated in two places ; there were also other
appearances inconsistent with death from natural
causes. An inquest was accordingly held before
the coroner for the district, when the fade above stated
were peeved in evidence, and also that the doused had
eaten a oaks which his mother bad brought him, and which,
she stated, she bought of • woman as the road, together
with two other similar ci.kes, which she gave to her little
brother and sister ; it happened, however, that neither of
theme two last-mentioned cakes had been eaten, and one of
them was gives to the surgeon. At the post-mortem exami.
nation the stomach and intestines of the deceased ware
removed and handed over to a surgeon, resident at Bury,
for analysis, and the inquest was adjourned until Friday
last for the purpose of ascertaining the revolt. On Friday
it watuproved that the death of the child was caused by coo-
eentrated sulphuric acid, and on searching the box of the
mother, one of hex dredges (which she bad worn on the
day she went home) Will found to be very much burst
with the same acid. The evidence left the jury no alter-
native kit to return • verdict of " Wilful murder" against
Julia Brown, and the coroner made out his wartime, commit-
ting her to take her trial upon the charge at the approach-
ing assizes at Bury St. Edmunds.
