BOY, 4, DIES OF LOCKJAW

Son Of Mr. and Mrs. Frances GUERTIN Is Summoned Today

Robert GUERTIN, four-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Frances GUERTIN, died at his home, 803 W. Lowe st., at 10:30 a.m. today from lockjaw.

The young boy recently ran a splinter in his finger, but the injury did not apparently become serious until yesterday morning and all efforts to save his life proved futile. He was born March 3, 1932.

He is survived by his parents, his grnadfather (sic) Emil THYS and two brothers Richard and Lawrence.

The boy was taken to the Hoskins funeral home.
