The Place Where the Body Was Put in the Sadouc. To get to this place the waggon would have to be driven from the Waverley House across the railway track, down the main street in Shediac, until near the bridge crossing the Saduoc, then turning to the left along a road parallel to the river to near Farmer Atkinson's, where it would have to pass through a gate of Farmer Atkinson's, enter a lane which runs down to his barn-yard and above the barns, pass through a grain or hay-field and across a corner of a potato patch into a gap in a bit of woods and emerge at the river side. About this place on the 13th October there were four rafts of logs. At the place where the waggon tracks were seen there was from 30 to 40 feet of open water between the bank of the river and the logs. There was a gradual descent from the bank to the water, about 10 feet in a distance of 30 feet. At that place the water was deep, as the channel strikes immediately against the shore. There was about nine feet of water at low tide, and the tide rose about five feet. The shore was not sufficiently steep to prevent a waggon going down, although it would be difficult for it to cross. Where the body was found the water was about 15 feet deep. The jury at both trials visited this place and the Waverley House, PROMOTIONS AND APPOINTMENTS IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE. IMPERIAL APPOINTMENTS.
