SUCCUMBS TO DIPHTHERIA

Four Year Old Child of Mr. and Mrs. H . E. Johnson Is Victim.

Louise, the four year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herman B. Johnson, residing a mile north of Craig, died on Sunday, after a two weeks' illness from diphtheria. The funeral was held yesterday and was strictly private owing to the nature of the disease.

The little girl was a granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Johnson, of this city. She would have been four years old if she had lived until next May. Her death is a terrible blow to her parents.

This is the second fatal case of diphtheria at Craig within a week. It is said there are no more cases in Craig and vicinity.
