Johnny Carroll Cole-

Johnny Carroll Cole was born in Davenport Nov. 9, 1893, and died at the Andrew Children’s Home Feb. 6, 1900, being 6 years, 2 months and 27 days of age. Johnny was a bright, loving little boy, and during his brief life here made many friends by his sweet disposition and loving ways. His sweet smile will be sadly missed by his broken-hearted mother, and his sudden death has caused an aching void in her heart while time nor words of consolation can never fill. The funeral took place at the M. E. Church and the remains were laid to rest in Mt. Hope cemetery, Maquoketa.
