His Worship expressed himself as being absolutely shocked that the State should be called upon to maintain the children of this woman in-, such a manner, and although he made the order Un stated that the best course to pursue in a case of this description was to place the woman in some place where she would not be subjected to temptation. Doubtless His Worship’s remarks I would have been couched in stronger language if he bad known that the woman was shortly to apply to the Benevolent Institution for permission to enter the lying-in ward in view of her approaching confinement in respect of another illegitimate child. She appeared at yesterday’s meeting of the Benevolent Institution Trustees and stated that she was 28 years of age, and that she expected to bo shortly confined.
