A horseman traced _ foot tracks from a bundle he saw in the snow to a woman who was nearly frozen and on her way to Whitby. The Oshawa Vindicator, a forerunner of The Times, says the rider could not help her because "'she was 80 benumbed." He notified a man called "'Con- stable Campbell" when he reached Whitby and the officer set out at once to find the dis- tressed woman. She was speechless when he found her and as they were not far from a hotel named Gads- by's - the constable tried to get her a room in the inn. LANDLADY REFUSED The landlady refused to allow the woman to enter the hotel because "she was colored," says The Vindicator. "The constable, instead of compelling the heart- less landlady to keep her," said the editor of The Vindicator, "procurred a cutter, put the half dead creature in it and he and. an assistant dragged her in it for two hours through the piercing cold of that bitter night about the street of Whitby, seek- ing to obtain some place of shelter." It was nearly midnight and about six hours after the rider had found the woman in the snow, before officials found a room, They called for the doctor but by this time the woman was "almost frozen solid," said the paper. "He tried every rem- ~ but she died before morn- g. The Vindicator called it an "utter absence of common sense and Christian charity" and the paper questioned that such an incident could occur "'in our civ- ilization."" "In the centre of a town, a human being, and that a wom- an, freezes to death because no one would take her in." HOME SEARCH A later report in The Vindi- cator says the woman's name was Johnson and that she had lived east-of-Oshawa near the lakeshore before moving ues Whitby. She searched for @ home in Whitby for eight weeks before finding accommodation in the home of a Whitby bar- ber, The Vindicator says. She left the town a short time afterwards and stayed in an In- dian camp four miles from Osh- awa. When she disappeared she was not heard of until she was found nearly frozen. Town council set up a special committee to investigate the _circumstances of her death.
