AN INFANT’S CRY
HUSBAND AND WIFE’S DISCOVERY. (Per United Press Association.) Wellington, March 24. A startling discovery was made by a Wellington resident and his wife just prior to the rowing of an eight-oared race for the Halyburton-Johnstone Cup on Saturday afternoon. Desirous of getting a good view of the race they walked up one of the paths leading up the hillside between Ngahauranga anti Petone. 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 newly-born 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.
