Left Baby on Front
Porch
A mysterious little visitor entreated entrance to the home
of W.D. Mendenhall, 329 East Bragg street, at 10:45 o’clock Wednesday night,
immediately after neighbors saw a machine drive up to the door and observed
that a woman left a bulky looking package on the front porch. The bell was rung
as the intruder departed hastily, and when E.J. Mendenhall, who also resides
there, opened the door, he discovered a 10-pound baby boy, apparently only a
few hours of age, but well dressed, wrapped carefully in a blanket, which also
contained several changes of tasteful clothes.
The neighbors thought that the human package was the
laundry, and they paid no attention to their observations until the discovery
had been made. For this reason those who left the child were not traced.
