covery of the body of an infant burr
ed in the garden at the home of Cy
Merritt, who is tenant on the John
Burks farm near Addison. The skull
of the infant was crushed, pparently
by a blow with some kind of blunt
instrument.
A physician of this city, who exam
med the remains of the infant, states
that it was undou btedly born ali We
and that it had been buried about five
or SIX days.
The body of the infant was found
by some children. When discovered a
strip of cloth was wrapped aroun 1t.
The infant was found in small
excavation, about "a foot in depth
aud near a pile of straw. The child
rem who found it were rakIng up the
scattered straw in the garden for the
purpose of burning it, Some straw
had been thrown into the excavation
with the loose earth and the loosening
of the straw by the children led to the
discovery. 1t is evident that the in
FAINT was buried at night and, in the
dark, the straw was mixed with the
loose earth through mistake.
Up until Yesterday no arrests bad
