DEATH CLAIMS BABY
LITTLE SON OF MR. AND
MRS. J.H. BANGHART
PASSED AWAY LAST NIGHT
FUNERAL IS THURSDAY.

Death has saddened the home of Mr. and Mrs. J.H. Banghart by calling from this life their little son, John H., who passed away last night at 11:00 after an illness of pneumonia extending over a period of seventeen days. The little one was born in Waterloo January 16, 1904, and was one year and twenty-two days old at time of death. THe son was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Banghart, who reside at 315 High street.

John Holliday Banghart was stricken with bronchial pneumonia on Sunday, Jan. 22, and although of strong constitution, the child never rallied sufficiently to give cause for much hope. He sank gradually yesterday afternoon, and death claimed him at 10:55 o'clock.

The shadow of death rests heavily in this home, when the eyes of the bright little boy were closed to life and light. Mr. and Mrs. Banghart may be assured that deep and sincere is the sympathy that goes out to them from the heart of all who know of their great sorrow.

The funeral services will be held Thursday afternoon at the house, 315 High street, at 2:00 o'clock. Rev. Hinkle, rector of Christ Episcopal church, will officiate. Interment will be made in Fairview Cemetery.
