The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Homer Tilton of Monroe township, passed away at 9:45 last evening. The babe was only nine weeks old and had been almost a constant sufferer during its short life. The parents brought the child to Winterset where they could have closer medical treatment and everything that loving hands could do was done to save the little one's life. Sympathy is extended the parents in their sad bereavement.

Funeral services will be held from the home of Mrs. Tilton's parents this afternoon at three o'clock and burial in the Winterset cemetery.
