SUDDEN DEATH OF NEGRO CHILD
Died and Body Shipped Away Without
Notice to Coroner.

Sunday Nora Lee Holmes, colored
girl about year old, died and the
body was shipped away without no
tica to- Coroner Baldwin. The mother
Of the child stated 1t was found dead
in bed, but there seems to be a ques-
tion about this. 1t developed that
the mother of the child carried insur-
ance on It, and the company has re-
fused to pay the claim
Coroner Baldwin is printing a card
in this issue of the News about the
matter Some of the negroes are OF
the opinion that the child was put
to death for the purpose OF collect
ing the insurance, but this is hardly
probble. Coroner Baldwin may have
the body exhumed, as there are some
very peculiar circumstances connect
ed with the death
The mother of the dead girl lives
at 2410 Cochran avenue, and it is
probable that the authorities will
make an investigation.
