HACKENSACK. July 6.-As a pris-
oner, pretty Sophie Collins today at
tended the inquest into the death of her
young baby girl, which was buried
alive in a bunker on the grounds of the
Hackensack Golf, Club. Apparently not
appreciating the seriousness of her
predicament, the young woman.smiled
and seemed untouched by grief.
When golf players found the nicely
dressed body of the baby in the bunker
it was turned over to the coroner, and
an autopsy showed that the child was
alive when it had been buried. A
closer Investigation showed that a drug
had been administered TO the infant so
that 1t was unconscious when the earth
was thrown over 1t.
Sophie Collins was arrested as she
left church after attending mHss, and
she frankly admitted that tire child
was hers. She said it had been born in
Jersey City on May 20 and that she had
kept 1t in q home there until Friday,
when she received n message that it
was Ill and to come and get 1t.
II went to Jersey City," the young
woman said, "and got my baby. She
was very Ill, and the doctor told me
she could live only a few I
brought her to Hackensack, n when
we reached here 1 looked at her face
and thought she was dead. I had no
ZONE to bury her, and / thought l
would lose my place if l took the body
to Mrs. Fielding's home. So | went up
to the golf club grounds and there
buried the little body. l meant no
HARM
The girl declared that she believed
the baby was dead and that If it had
been drugged she was innocent and
that the drug must have been admin
istered before she got the baby at he
jersey City home.
Justice Wheat committed her to the
Hackensack jail to await the action
of the grand jury.
