Baby Fatally Burned in Its Crib at Home

Doris Vedeira Hawthorne, one-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Hawthorne, was fatally burned in her crib at the Hawthorne home in South Tenth avenue just before noon Wednesday when sparks from the fireplace set the baby's bed on fire.

The mother was in the yard on an errand and returned to find the crib in flames. She was painfully burned about the hands and arms trying to rescue the baby.

The baby was rushed to the Laurel General Hospital where death came within an hour. The father is an employe of the Limbert Furniture company.
