The Newton Record 23 Apr 1897
An Infant Choked to Death
Broderson Infant

The two-months old baby of Mr. and Mrs. Chris Broderson, two miles north of Reasnor, was choked to death last Monday. The nipple of the nursing bottle was drawn into the throat of the little one, causing death in a very few minutes. The parents are almost prostrated by the grief on account of the shocking death of their baby, and the tenderest sympathy of everybody is elicited in their behalf. The funeral services occurred from the home on Wednesday afternoon, and the little body was laid to rest in the Wild Cat [Palo Alto] Cemetery.
