Postville Review, Sat., 25 July 1885.

Died. FABER- In Postville, July 23rd, 1885, Freddie, son of Charles and Marian Faber, aged 7 yrs., 7 months and 5 days.

Over five weeks ago he was stricken down with "Cerebro Spinal Menengitis," during all of which time loving hands have administered to his wants. At times, as is common in the history of that terrible disease, he seemed to improve, but the hopes thus awakened were delusive, and the grim destroyer claimed his own. Freddie was a good, affectionate child, greatly beloved by the family. The family has the sympathy of the entire community.
