Date of death edit

I've been trying to add sources to the article as originally there were none and it said she was born 8 December 1894 and died 8 December 1930. That was confirmed in the first source I found (ISBN 9780787668242). It says, "She attempted suicide twice before making the final attempt on her life (by an overdose of barbiturates) on 8 December 1930, the date of her thirty-sixth birthday." However the second source I found (doi:10.2307/344263) says, "When she died in Matosinhos near Oporto from an overdose of barbiturates on December 7, 1930, the eve of her thirty-sixth birthday..." There are limited sources in English about her and these are the best ones I've found so far that cover her biography and aren't just a discussion of her poetry. Is there a good way to address the discrepancy without OR? What should the lead and infobox say? Thanks! PermStrump(talk) 16:26, 26 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
