Alma jackson Charged With
Drowning her Two Year Old Child.
Miss ALMA JACKSON, aged about 20
years, OF Lee township, this county, was
brought to Jail last Sunday evening by
Constable GRraa and Mr. WILlIAAsuN,
on q mittimus charging her with 'taking
the life of her son, HARRY JACKSON, By
drowning and other foul means" We
obtained the following particulars from
the gentlemen named above:
The JACKSON family had arranged to
move from Sardis TO New Ma'tlnsvllle,
Wes, Va, aad were going up on thu
Steamer C urier last Friday evening.
When the time come to 60 aboard the
boat, ALMA appeared without her bov,
child 2 years and 8 months old Her
brother, Jo,EpH. insisted upon ascertain
leg the wh,rehouts Of the child, but
finally they departed. SAMUEL SUTER
then filed an affidavit and Constable
GREsa went to N Martinsvile and
arrested her
The citizens tracked ALMA to PAT
Tos's run. near Eco. NEsBIrT's, where
she hal been seen between and p. m.
on the 18th ins, where the caild's hat
was found upon the bank and, after con-
siderable search. The dead hody OF the
child was found In the 'back-water The
supposition is that she proposely threw
the hoy into the water, but her story is
that it accidentally fell in, that abe got a
board and tried to save It but couli not,
and gave a. reason for not making an
outcry and calling some one, that she
d d not want her mother to know about
the childs death.
The fact that the mother made no
mention of her child, or what had he.
come ot it, to her friends, and the fur
ther fact that they did not trouble them
selves t., remain in Ssrdis and ascertain
| the wherehouts, makes the affair look
like deliberately planned, cold blooded
murder. 1t might be ascertained, BY
further investigation. thst there are
other persons who ought to be in charge
