The community sympathizes with Mr. and Mrs. Will Fielding in the death of their four and one-half month baby daughter, Mabel Elizabeth, who died early Sunday morning after a few days of illness. The little one had undergone a severe siege of whooping cough from the effects of which she had never fully recovered and when illness overtook her, she was not able to withstand it. She leaves to mourn her loss a father and mother, three sisters and four brothers. The funeral was held from the home Tuesday afternoon, Rev. Page preaching the funeral sermon and the body was laid to rest beside the little brother, LeRoy Everett, who preceded her in death, in the East Side cemetery, Estherville. The little one was born April 7, and died August 22nd.

Mr. and Mrs. Sam Fielding and two daughters drove up from Rand’s Tuesday to attend the funeral of their little niece.
