Three Days' Old Baby Dies At The Hospital

The three day old baby boy of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Gelder died at the Eldora hospital at four o'clock Thursday afternoon. Death was due to a hemorrhage. The baby was fully matured at birth and his death was unexpected and a severe shock to the grief stricken family.

A short service conducted by Rev. Edw. Jurgens was held in the Reformed church Friday afternoon. Burial was in the cemetery adjoining the church.

The little boy was the first child of Mr. and Mrs. Gelder. He was named James Robert.
