It is not known how many she took, but when her mother returned to the house, she was confronted by the pathetic sight of her baby in convulsions. A physician was called, but before he arrived, the poison had taken effect. Besides her parents, the baby is survived by two sisters, Rosmilda, aged 4, and Dorothy, aged six months, and a brother, Lawrence, aged three years.
