The mother of the girls, Mrs. Sarah Harnden, who had been missing all day, has reported to the police at Barking. She wan charged with murdering the children and will be brought up at Stratford' Polies Court, The police bad circulated a description

of her.

After climbing over the fence into bis garden he saw smoke pouring from the two back bedroom windows. He tried to unlatch the back door, but found it locked.
