Mrs. Fan~ ny R Dudiey, formerly a night watch- woman at Tewksbury, testitied to seeing the body of a woman and a child in a trank. She saw a bottle of morphine used to quiet infants, and reported the fact to Captain Marsh, who attended to it ten days after. One infant was given into the charge of an insane inmate, who smothered it with a pillow, and the wit- ness was told by Captain Marsh to keep the matter quiet. “While I wes night watchwoman about seventy-three babies died and one lived. Sometimes when the children were hungry ia the night I carried in food, but Mis. Marsh stopped me, Many of the beds were in an out- rageous condition. I found an insane woman in a cell without any bed. She was attended by sn insane idiotic girl They gave the woman ouly cue meal a day aud this idiotic girl carried it, and instead of giviog it to the woman threw it away, We tuok the woman out and she soon fleshed up und became well, Margaret Henvessey told me she bad not bad suyithiug but water for nine days, Some of the patients bad no uuderclothis ing aud sue no Blockings.
