SUSPECTED POISONING OF A FAMILY AT BILSTON. On Tuesday afternoon, the body of a child was exhumed at the Cemetery, Bilston, under circumstances that have led to the arrest of his mother, charged on suspicion with having poisoned him and two others of her children. The mother's name is Griffiths; she is the wife of a puddler of that name, to whom she has borne twelve children, but has only two alive. Recently the children have gone off very fast. Suspicion began to be excited at the death of a daughter, aged eleven years, named Mary Jane, who was seized in September last with vomiting, and died so quickly that the death was attributed to Asiatic cholera. The postmortem evidences did not, however, bear out that belief, and some proceedings of the mother, in disposing of the remains of what it was alleged was medicine that the child bad taken, led to the stopping of the funeral by the authorities, and the analysing of the stomach and intestines.
