ALLEN – At Bonair, Iowa, Dec. 16, 1886, Vernie, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert R. Allen, aged 2 years, 9 months and 16 days.

On Wednesday morning, 15th inst., little Vernie fell backward into a kettle of hot milk which had been set down on the kitchen floor to cool a little before feeding it to a calf. The little fellow suffered terribly and died the next day at 4 o’clock in the afternoon. It was a sad case.

Mr. and Mrs. Allen wish us to express their sincere thanks to the neighbors and friends who so kindly assisted them during the sickness and burial of their little son.
