A Girl's Sad Death. The body of a young girl was discovered on Saturday at Undertaker Ramsey's, No. 531 Diamond street, and by order of the authorities was taken back to Camden whence it had been brought, to No. 335 Pine street, the house of Mrs. Engle, who was arrested and given a hearing before Mayor Pratt the same evening, when Dr. J. G. Stanton testified that he had been called to attend the deceased, whose name was Kate Gutekunst, and who died of peritonitis. Dr. Formad's testimony and that of County Physician Gross showed that the case was one of malpractice. The accused was held on that charge. The body was sent back to the undertaker's.
