So pleaded Mrs. Rosa Quinn, who
had confessed that she had yesterday
drowned her infant child in Central
Park lake. When the woman was ar

Her face was swollen from weeping
All night long she had paced the cor

her dead child. Today she seemed to
be dazed when she appeared before
the magistrate
In her confession the woman said
her home was in County Leitrim, Ire
land, where her aged parents now live
Two years ago she came to this coun-
try and secured a. position as cham
bermaid in the Fifth Avenue hotel.
She there met the father of her child,

That rapidly developing terri
