From the Breckenridge Telegram, we take the following account of the death of Harry Peery, a former Rook Rapids boy, who lived here for many years with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Peery.

The young man was well known here among the students of the local school, was a favorite with all, and his untimely death will be deeply regretted. The Telegram says:

"We are very sorry to report the death of Harry Peery which took place Wednesday night about 10:30. He was taken dangerously ill with pneumonia and later typhoid developed. He was brought to the hospital and everything possible done to stay the disease but without avail.

Harry was in his 17th year, a very bright studious boy. He was the only son of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Peery and the joy and pride of his parents. He was a student at the State Scientific school In Wahpeton and was making good progress.

The funeral will be held at the M. E. church Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock, leaving the family residence on the Mansion grade about 12:30.
