that the Directors should be vested with the power of dismissing
any officers belonging to the Company. .

statement on going out was, that she was going to the overseer
of the township in Yorkshire to which she belonged, and would
either have more relk'f for the child, or she would leave it with
him. She was met afterwards on the same day, on her return
from Manchester, but did not return to her lodgings until Thurs-
day night, when she came without the child. The neighbours
were alarmed, and charged her with having destroyed her infant,
which she denied, but at length said the wind had blown her and
the child into the canal, where it was drowned. The constable,
however, being sent for, she was taken into custody, and thea
confessed that she had put the child into the canal, at the upper
end of the tunnel near Ashton-under-Lyne. The constables iat-
mediately set men to drag for the child, and used all means m
their power to find it, but without success, until SundaY,:heu
the water was let off with the consent of the canal proprietors,
and the child's body was found, after having pawed t:brouugtu the
