Hopkins. At Lamoni, Iowa, March 25th, 1882, of congestion of the lungs, caused by the measles, William W., only child of Bro. Frank and Sr. Ada [Hudson] Hopkins, aged 2 years, 6 months and 28 days. A very heavy loss, and coming suddenly and unexpectedly upon those desolate hearts thus tried for the first time by such a loss.

Funeral services at the house at the time by Elder W.w. Blair, a storm preventing full services, which were afterwards attended to by Elder H.A. Stebbins in the Saints’ Chapel.
