Death ofFred BEATTY. (sic)

The home of Mr. and Mrs. D. R. BEATTY is saddened by the death of their eldest son, Freddy, which occurred on Monday night of this week. He had been ill but a day or two and no dangerous results were anticipated until shortly before his death. The disease which carried him off is pronounced a type of scarlet fever. Freddie was an unusually bright and active boy, about eleven years of age, and a general favorite with friends and playmates. The funeral occurred from the home of the parents, near the C., B. & Q. depot, yesterday afternoon, Rev. C. Reed officiating. The remains were interred in the Evergreen Cemetery.
