died at the home of his pa-
. rents Wednesday morning at
. seven o’clock^ Sept. 27th.
The parents had noticed
si^je July 30 that the child’s
condition was not at all what
*$ould be desired) but at first
were not alarmed. As the
condition of the child became
more noticeable he was car-
ried to the home doctor; *frr.
McKay, and after a week or
two under his care the child
/ continued to prow weaker.
& He was then put under the
* eare of Doctors Hoch and
^ Powell of LaGrange. Other
™'*dpctors were also consulted,
but the child’s case could not
be thoroughly solved.
All that doctors,, medicine
-and- patient loving1 hands are
capable of was done to re-
store the little darling "back
-to ' health, but it seems that
God had only given him to
them for a short time.to bring
joy and sunshjno to their
♦home and then take him back
