Duchess of Windsor Returns to Baltimore in Quiet Arrival

The Sumac girl who became the Duchess of Windsor returned to her home city of Baltimore that night as the former Miss Watlis Warfield of 225 East Middle Street. The former king accompanied her in a virtually unnoticed arrival, contrasting with their October 1941 visit when crowds jammed the station and ticker tape showers greeted them.
