Grundy Center Baby Dies Eight Weeks After His Father

Erwin Neessen, aged 10 months, whose father, Heinie Neessen, died eight weeks ago as result of an automobile accident died Monday evening after a long illness. The family has been under quarantine practically continuously since the father's death, when the baby was ill of chicken-pox and death resulting from sinus and mastoid complications.

Surviving are the mother, Mrs. Sopha Neessen, three brothers and three sisters. It is believed the funeral will take place Wednesday.

The father died as a result of the severance of his jugular vein by glass when he was thrown thru the windshield of an automobile in which he was riding when two machines collided.
