reporting the death:
The baby who was born to Meusa La, one of the principal warrior
dancers in the Ashantee Village, and who was given the name of Kai
Akosia, died yesterday. Hopes were entertained at first that the
baby would live, although it was weak from birth. The circumstances
will not render an inquest necessary. |
