Elkader Register & Argus, Thur., 18 May 1911.
Our people were shocked Tuesday to learn of the death of Effie Talley at twelve o'clock Monday night, of scarlet fever. She had been taken sick about a week before and as symptoms of scarlet fever developed she was promptly quarantined with her mother and brother Ray. She was apparently getting along nicely but at the critical stage of the disease grew rapidly worse with fatal results.
Effie Irene was the youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. Grant M. Talley and was born at La Crosse, Wis., May 18, 1898. She came to Elkader with her parents when about three years of age. Her parents, two sisters, Vernie and Ada; two brothers, Atwell and Ray, and a large circle of schoolmates and friends mourn the untimely summons which took her from them. The sympathy of our community goes out to the friends on whom the blow has fallen so harshly but their consolation must come from Him who "doeth all things well."
The funeral was held at five o'clock on Tuesday.
