YOUNG CHILD CALLED EARLY FOUR-YEAR-OLD LAD DIES QUITE UNEXPECTEDLY LAST FRIDAY

Universal sympathy goes out to Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Eisenbach in the loss of their only child, a bright little boy of fours years of age, who passed away in the early hours of Friday morning. The cause of death is somewhat mysterious. He had been sick with a bad throat several weeks ago and it is thought that the poison went through his system and weakened his heart so that it could not withstand an attack of convulsions.

The little lad passed away before the doctor arrived on the scene. The funeral took place on Christmas Day to St. Paul's church for service and thence to the Union Cemetery for burial. A large number of relatives and friends showed their sympathy by attendance at the funeral.
