Died in New Jersey: the baby-smoker Winfield Hancock Doran
The infant known as the baby-smoker died in Wrenton New Jersey after a week of illness from diphtheria. Born in May, he celebrated his fourth birthday and had a remarkable habit of smoking from infancy. His father, an inveterate smoker, influenced the child who began smoking before seven months old, favoring pipes and strong cigars. Doctors found nicotine poisoning with no remedy, noting the boy thrived on tobacco and seldom smoked cigarettes. The family proudly documented his precocious smoking prowess and his habit of riding in a baby carriage with a black pipe.
