Word was received here Friday of the death of Charles Cleveland Lund, 15 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Lund, formerly of this city, but now residing at Elgin, Ill.

Charles Lund, Jr., was born in Chicago, Nov. 22, 1899, and frequently visited relatives in this city. He leaves besides his parents one sister, Dorothy, at home, and one brother, John, at Champaign, Ill.

Death was due to Bright's disease, from which the child suffered since having typhoid fever four years ago, a sister having succumbed to typhoid at that time.

The body will arrive here Monday morning at 11:45 and the funeral will be held Monday afternoon with interment in Oakland cemetery.
