CHILD WAS A BURDEN
Mother Tried to Rid Herself of
Son, Aged Two Years.
Told Fairy story to chief of Police
Russell about Receiving the
YOungster from an Unknown
Woman on n Train.

A curious story of a womans at
tempt to rid herself Of her two years
old son has been unfolded to the po-
lice by Mrs Marguerite Laporte. who
is at present living in North Under
hill with the family Of Louis Hill. and
who says that she has formerly lived
In q number OF other Vermont towns.
Monday afternoon Mrs. Laporte, a
young woman about "a years of age,
accompanied by the boy, an attractive
youngster. appeared at the police sta
| ton and said she desired to place the
boy, whose parents she did not know,
In local institution, az she could no
| longer take care of him.
In answer to the questions put by
the chief as TO how she came to have
tho child with her, she said that a
week before she was coming up from
Springfield, Mass, where she had been
working for the past few years. TO
T'nderhill, her former home, and at
Bellows Falls, woman who sat near
her had accosted her and asked II she
would take the child for a few min
utes while she went into the next car.
| This Mrs Laporte consented to do and
the miles sped by pleasantly.
Several stations had been made and
considerable time had elapsed before
Mrs. Laporte became anxious and up
| on investiga ton the woman who gave
her the child was nowhere to be found
on the train. II then flashed across
her that the woman had taken her as
a means of disposing of the child, but
she could adopt no other course than
| IN hri Tim al n
one else to take care OF him. She
| then brought him to Burlington and
later to Underhill Now. however. she
was obliged to let him go as his pres
ence prevented her from obtaining
employment
This is the story she told the police
but when she got all through. the
chief put come questions to her which
made numerous holes in her rather
dramatic recitation. When IT came TO
telling all about herself, she attempt
ed to evade definite answer and fin
ally broke down and said that her en-
tire story was a fabrication told to
| help rid herself of the boy. She then
| pleaded with the police to be allowed
to go free. which was done. If for no
other reason, because there was no
excuse for holding her. there being no
law against lying. She was then told
to apply to either one of the orpha n
| asylums but had not done so last
evening.
The Laporte woman said that her
| husband died last August and that
since then she had been working in a
laundry in Springfield. but found that
| she could not obtain q better position
while encountered with her child. She
had no near relatives living but did
have friends in underhill and Grand
Isle. where she had lived for several
years On leaving the station she
promised to care for the boy in the
| future,
