BABY ON HILLSIDE.
, NAKED UNDER A TREE. WELLINGTON, March 25. A startling discovery was made by a Wellington resident and his wife just prior to the rowing of the eight-oared race for the Halyburton Johnstone Cup on Saturday afternoon. Desirous of getting a view of the race, they walked up one of the paths leading up a hillside between Ngahanrangia and IVtone. Suddenly they heard what the lady described as a sound which resembled a bleat. On looking round they found that the cry came from a newlyborn baby, which had been left unclothed under a tree.. When they had got over their surprise they sent for the police, who handed the baby over to the Alexandra Home.
