Funeral services for Capt. Albert L. Woodworth, 94-year-old Civil War veteran, who died Sunday at his home in Norfolk, Va., were held Wednesday in Arlington National Cemetery. ‘The honorary pallbearers were Capt. Edward J. Dorn, U. 8. N, retired; J. Miller Kenyon, John K. M. Ewing and Joseph I. Keefer. A retired manufacturer, Capt. Wood- worth was said to be one of the last living men who had voted for Presi- dent Lincoln. Each year he made a pilgrimage to Washington to lay a wreath on the Lincoln Memorial. Capt. Woodworth had enjoyed ex- ceptionally good health throughout his life and up until the time of his death kept posted a $1,000 reward to any per- son who could show he had ever spent so much as a day in any hospital. was honorary commander in chief of the Military Order of the Layal Legion and was a member of the Kit Carson Post, Grand Army of the Republic. A son, two daughters, several grand- children and three great-great-grand- children survive. Babv (Continued From First Page.) doctors. Instruments had been steril- ized in advance. All was in readiness. Yet the surgeons knew they must act quickly. Any delay or difficulty in delivering the post-mortem baby might prove fatal. They had eight minutes, they estimated, in which to bring forth the infant alive. Exactly one minute after Mrs. Boc- cassini had been pronounced dead, a | tiny new life had come into being. An almost indiscernible pulse-beat sig- nalled victory. Dominick Boccassini. the father, was grief stricken at his home, Went to See Wife. “I went to the hospital last night to see my wife.” he said. “I knew when I saw her she was going to die. I'm glad. though, they saved the little bambina’s life. I'll do what I can for her, but it isn't much.” He said he had employment only two or three days a week “I have two other children by my | first wife,” Boccassini said. “Ome of them, the boy Sergei, who is 9, is in| an orphanage in the South. “My daughter Isabella, who is 12, lives here with me and we'll find a place for the new one.” He left his home accompanied by his wife's uncle, Alfredo Elia, to make arrangements for her funeral. Not Particularly Unusual. Dr. Corbit, after he had his break- gave further bits of information. He said there was nothing particu- larly unusual about the case. He said | that in a post-mortem Caesarean oper- | ation the incision does not have to be as extensive as in a regular Caesarean. In a regular Caesarean the mother's blood stream has to be watched, but in this case there was no such situa- tion. The doctor said the baby gave a gasp at birth, but did not ery. He said he was amazed that the infant made any sound. 8ix hours after the baby was born its temperature had been reduced to 102. This was the second operation of the same kind that Dr. Corbit has | performed in a year. The first case | was that of a Woman who died of heart trouble. An instant operation was performed, but the child was born dead. Another Baby Thrives, NIAGARA FALLS Ontario, August 6 ().—A post-mortem baby born here May 17 apparently was thriving today under the care of her father and a 4- year-old sister. She is Seraphine Antoinette Sorde. | born eight minutes after her mother died with a serious kidney ailment. Dr. Samuel McCallum, a physician, said he sent Mrs. Sorde to General Howpital after she had suffered a con- vulsion. She suffered another and & nurse called in Dr. Harry Wrong, a staff physician. The mother was found dead. Without waiting to sterilize himself or his instruments, Dr. Wrong used an ordinary scapel and performed a Caesarian operanun, Dr. McCallum said, adding, “The baby has thrived | ever since. She now vemhs 8 pounds.” Nashville Boy Living. NASHVILLE, Tenn., August 6 (&) —The birth of a post-mortem baby at Philadelphia today recalled to St. Thomas' Hospital attendants a simi- larly successful operation here two months ago. A baby boy was deliv- ered June 2, six minutes after his mother’s death, He weighed 6! pounds. “The baby was normal in every re- spect,” said a nurse, who declined use of her name. “He left the hospital only day before yesterday.” She said he had gained 2 pounds since birth. The operation was performed by Dr. Ben H. Marshall, 29-year-old resident physician, with the permission of the | hospital superintendent.
