CHILD-MURDER.
A SHOCKING CASE. By Telegraph.— Press Association.— Copyright. SYDNEY, 30th March. A shocking case of child-murder is being investigated in the Criminal Court. A wharf -labourer named Brady is accused of the murder of an infant aged six months. The mother of the child testified that Brady gave it laudanum, but as the first dose did not act, he gave it another, and finally strangled it with a bit of brass wire. Brady told her subsequently that he removed the bladder, so that the body would not float, and then dropped the body into the 'harbour.
