Elwood D., infant son of Mr. and Mrs. D. H. Sable, died at their home in this city after a lingering and very painful illness of over five weeks duration, Thursday, Feb 18. He was born March 27, 1895, making his age at death 1 year, 10 months and 21 days. Little Elwood was a great sufferer during his entire sickness. All that human love and tenderness could do was done for his comfort, but these were unavailing before the dread disease, cerebrospinal menegitis. Funeral services were held on Saturday at 10 o'clock a. m. in the home conducted by Rev. Boydston.
