Her little daughter, two and ahalf years of agq, was found asleep beside Jier when the husband of the woman made the tragic discovery on Wednesday evening. The child was well but evidently had been crying. It had not been able to obtain food. When discovered by her husband, Mrs Angell was lying upon the bed fully dressed. The body disclosed no signs of violence. The husband had left home at 8.30 on Saturday morning, and did not return until after dark on "Wednesday. The house is situated in a very lonely spot on'i the shores of Lake Rotoehu, and the nearest neighbour is three miles away, which probably accounts for the fact that the death of the woman was not discovered earlier.
