Little Frankie, son of L. P. and M. A. Sidener, died December 24th, of membranous croup, aged two years and five months. He had just recovered from a severe attack of diphtheria when the dread disease, croup set in causing his death in a few hours. The remains were taken to Madison county for burial.

Frankie was a bright, active child, loved by all who knew him for his sweet and loving disposition. The parents have the warmest sympathy of friends in their sad bereavement.
