Baker, Baby - 1912

Child Scalded To Death

A very distressing affair occurred at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Baker,
residing on the old Pilkington place in Huntington township, Adams County, last
Saturday morning.  Mrs. Baker had placed her ten months old baby near the cook
stove where a tea kettle was boiling.  Another child three years old pushed the
kettle over and the boiling water ran down over the baby scalding it to death.
