the finding of a dead infants body
on the shore ice close to the
Nome beach at the East end of

body was found partially wrapp
ed in women's clothing, in the
center of a large dump a short
distance from the beach.
A young native boy Louis Oz
una, while rummaging through
the dump discovered the body.
He related his discovery to an
older boy, Mathew Thomas, who
in turn went to the police station
with the news. Chief Laws im
mediately investigated, placed
the small body in a box and noti
fied the coroner.

child was approximately 6 mon
ths old, weight 3 to 3‘2 pounds,

stated that all babies of the age
of this one. reveal similar out
ward characteristics, and that it
would require the use of scien
tific apparatus, none of which is

baby's racial ancestry. Dr. Mor
com also testified that it would
