Virginian Pilot June 25, 1905
                     Had Long Sleep

One of the most remarkable cases of long sleeping perhaps heard of in this 
section happened this week in South Norfolk when Mabel, 11-months-old daughter 
of Mr. and Mrs. B.H. Fields, slept forty-eight hours without waking or showing 
any signs of so doing.
There were two of the town physicians in attendance who were unable to diagnose 
the case.  The child was taken extremely ill Sunday and continued to grow worse  
Later in the week she went into a deep peaceful sleep and did not arouse until 
Thursday.  While her condition is slightly improved she is still very ill.

*************************************************
Mabel, the eleven-months-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B.F. Fields, died at their 
home in Liberty street, South Norfolk, Sunday morning at 5 o'clock after an 
illness of a week's duration. 
The funeral was conducted from the residence yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock, 
Rev. V.W. Bargamin, pastor of Liberty Street M.E. Church, officiating.  The 
interment was in Magnolia Cemetery.
