Accident in Crib Takes Life of 11-Month-Old Susan Phylis Stephenson, Dec. 3, 1925

Child Is Choked to Death in Her Crib

Washington, N.C., Dec. 3—Susan Phylis, the 11-month-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G.W. Stephenson of Wanoca, was strangled to death today at noon. She was left in the crib to sleep, and when the mother returned the child had been dead presumably 30 minutes. The baby’s head had in some way gotten between the spokes of the crib which resulted in choking her to death. The funeral will be held tomorrow at 4 o’clock.
