FERN CLYDE FUNERAL.

OSAGE, IOWA, Dec. 4. — All that was mortal of Fern Clyde was consigned to the earth today . He was the youngest son of Judge and Mrs. Jefferson F. Clyde.

Two years ago he was stricken with an acute attack or rheumatism, which compelled him to give up his school work. He had apparently recovered from that trouble when diabetes took hold of him and from which cause he died.

[Waterloo Times Tribune, Tuesday, December 5, 1912]
