Magee, it is al­ leged, picked up her ten-months-old baby, Mildred Ruth, and carried her to a galvanized iron stock water­ trough behind the house. She is be­ lieved to have climbed in with the baby and wedged herself under water beneath the supporting crossbeam in the tank in an attempt to drown her­ self and the child. Time and time again her head came to the surface, and finally she gave up the attempt at suicide. The baby all, this time was at the bottom of the trough and dead when she picked it out to carry to her hus­ band who wa& working in the field with his brother, George, and his mo­ ther, Mrs. Sarah Magee, who was walking in the field. Her husband running towards her was greeted with the words “I’ve drowned our baby..” The watertrough was five-and-one- half feet long and two and one-half feet in’ width and depth. When efforts at.ithe house failed to bring back the life* of the tiny infant, the family physician, Dr. R. L. Stew­ art, was called an| when he learned of the nature of ttje death he immed­ iately notified Coroner Dr. R. C. Red­ mond. An inquest was ordered and it was formally opened on Thursday. The jury is composed ‘of W. H. French (foreman), Jack Mason, Harold Bu­ chanan, Thos. R. Bennett, Clare-Ad­ ams, Jas. S. Isard, Fred Carter, James Carr and Roy Manuel, all of town.

The inquest was resumed here to-day (Wednesday) at 10 a.m. Mrs. Magee was taken to Goderich on Wednesday evening soon after in­ vestigation was made by provincial police. Thursday morning she was formally charged with murder in God­ erich court and remanded to Huron County jail for one week without plea. She was not represented by counsel and when she appeared her face was lined with anxiety, possibly remorse, but she endured the proceed­ ings calmly and walked quietly with officers to the police car to be return­ ed to the jail. The accused woman, aged 37 years, who before her marriage in 1936 was Ruby Rebecca Baird, and worked as a domestic in a number of Wingham homes, was a quiet hard working girl. Although she was inclined to be slightly nervous and at times high- strung, she made an ideal employee. The Magee farm, which is a pros­ perous one on the Bluevale Road, about two and one-half miles east of Wingliam, is operated by the two brothers, George and William. The mother lives with them, and has been with them since the death of her hus­ band a number of years ago. Neigh­ bors cannot understand the tragic happening. ♦ This is the first murder charge pre­ ferred 'in Huron County since 1913, when Edward “Punk” Jardine was convicted, sentenced and hanged.

BOYS’ TEAM TO RE­ PRESENT HURON AT PLOWING MATCH At a recent meeting of the Huron lowmen's Association which was held in Brussels, the difoctors were of the opinion that Huron County should be represented at the International Plow­ ing Match this fall by a team of three boys who would compete in the In­ ter-County competition for the Far­ mer’s Magazilne trophy. This compe­ tition is open to one team of three boys from each county in the Pro­ vince and members of the team must not have reached their 20th birthday by October 1st, 1938. Splendid cash prizes are provided at the Interna­ tional Match for contestants in the Inter-County Competition. In all 15 cash prizes arc awarded to the rank­ ing contestants, ranging from a first prize of $40.00 to a 15th prize of $4. The directors of the Huron Plow­ men’s Association suggested that the fairest way to select a team would be to have interested boys compete at a Junior Match, and the three highest boys would be selected to represent the county at the International match. To look after the proposed Junior Match the following committee was appointed: Bert Hemingway, Brus­ sels; Robert Michie, Brussels; R, L. McDonald, Brussels; Gordon McGav- in, Walton; Ian MacLeod, Clinton, Prospective contestants are asked to notify any member of the above men­ tioned committee on or before Aug* ust 15th, if they intend to compete at the local Junior Match, The commit­ tee hope that there will be a suffic­ ient number of entries so that a Jun­ ior Match may be Conducted and a team selected to plow in the Inter* County competition at the Interna** tionat Plowing Match, which is being held near Barrie, during the second week in October.
