BY Cow.

| Mrs. Amelia Cerino, about 81
years old, wife of Joseph Cerino, OF
North East, was arrested and lodged
in the Elkton Jail Monday charged
with the murder of her eight-year-
old stepson, Michael Cerino. The
boy had been buried nearly two
weeks, and the body was eXhumed

tenn examination made by DR.. H.
Arthur Mitchell, of Elkton. Coroner
Herbert D. Litzenberg summoned a

For some time the husband of the

The woman said that Michael had
been gored by an angry COW and died
from the injuries. An elder brother
of the boy later told his father that
Michael had been terribly beaten by
his stepmother. The father became
angry and questioned his wife more
closely for details, and she told con-
fiicting stories. He then accused her
of killing the child.
He, notified Sheriff Richard K.
Barnes and States Attorney Chas.
B. Finley, Jr. Accompanied by the
coroner, the officers visited the
Cerino home, in the Fifth district.
An investigation disclosed that DR..
Collins, of North East, had been
called in to see the child before it
died, and the woman then told the
story about COW injuring him. DR..
Collins found the child in semi
conscious condition, and, after it
died, gave a certificate of death ac-
cording to the story of the woman.
The postmortem examination dis
closed number of bad bruises on
the boys body and badly injured
skull. 1t was said that the woman
had been treating the children cruel
ly for some time. She has two
children, two and four years old, by
her present husband.

state Her two children, aged two
and four years, were turned over TO
