Roanoke Leader April 12, 1949
The fully developed body of newborn white baby girl was unearthed on the T. G. 
Fincher place one mile east of New Hope in this county last Friday, according to 
Coroner W. V. Cockrell. State officers have been called in to assist in 
investigating the case, he said. The coroner stated that apparently the baby had 
been dead between a month to six weeks. The body was discovered by W. J. Fincher 
while plowing in the edge of a cotton field near a chicken house. It was buried 
under about six inches of dirt and wrapped in a quilt ad some rags, according to 
Mr. Cockrell's report.
