Infant Dies; Rites Today
Twin Sister Healthy, Say Doctors
The funeral services for Dorothea Ida Nelson, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Nelson of Wallingford, were held this afternoon in the chapel of the Sternborg Funeral home. Interment was made in the Wallingford cemetery.

The child, one of twins, died in Coleman hospital early Sunday morning a few hours after birth. The baby was kept alive for 12 hours by artificial respiration.

The other twin child, Theodora, and the mother are getting along nicely. (Estherville Daily News, Estherville, IA, December 9, 1935)
