Pervis Baby Dies

After an illness of more than three weeks, suffering from an attack of scarlet fever, Leona Mae, the fifteen months old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Purvis of this place passed away last Wednesday afternoon. Brief funeral services conducted outside of the house, were in charge of Rev. H. F. Sinning, pastor of the German Presbyterian church, on Christmas day, and the remains were interred in the Clark cemetery. Mr. and Mrs. Purvis have the deepest sympathy of all who know them in their bereavement.
