The body of a female child was found wrapped up in a parcel on the foreshore of Haslar Creek, Gosport on the morning of Thursday 27 March 1924.

The body was discovered by an engine-room artificer of the Royal Navy who was on duty at the time at the Coastal Motor-Boat Base at Haslar Creek. He saw a brown paper parcel on the foreshore near the pontoon a few feet above the tide line which was at the time dead low.
