St. Ansgar Boy Victim of Infantile Paralysis

ST. ANSGAR, IOWA - Oct. 7, 1931 — Kenneth Eske, 14, son of Mrs. Lydia Eske died at a Rochester, Minn., hospital Monday morning. He was taken to Rochester last Thursday and became steadily worse, dying of infantile paralysis. The funeral which was private, was held yesterday afternoon, the Rev. Mr. Landdeck officiating.

Kenneth Eske Died
Monday After But
Few Day's Illness

Mrs. Emil Eske's friends deeply sympathize with her in the loss of her eldest child, Kenneth, 14, who passed away at St. Mary's Hospital at Rochester Monday, after a few day's critical illness.

The blow is a hard one, indeed, for Mrs. Eske, as it is only a couple of years ago that her husband passed away.

Kenneth had been ill for a few days with what was thought to be a form of the flu, that is so generally prevalent this fall. However, Thursday there was a change for the worse and his mother took him to Rochester, where little could be done to relieve him.

The body was brought home and a private funeral held the following afternoon at the home in charge of the Reverend Carl Landdeck and burial made beside his father in the Rock Creek Cemetery.

Kenneth was a bright, attractive lad, and he is going to be sorely missed by his mother and the other relatives and friends. Mrs. Eske has two other children, Reuben and Irene.
