child was found dead on a lounge with
nothing on but underclothes.
Undertaken Charles H. Clewen went
TO the house by the directions of the
coroner, and when he reported that
Sweeney refused to allow the body to
be removed, Agent Stout came here
and made an investigation. He found
that Sweeney could earn from Si5 to

was spent for drink. the children were
found to have been neglected. 1t is
said the little ones had been allowed
to remain out doors with hardly any
shoes on their feet and their bodies
