The Malcom Leader (Malcom, Iowa)
March 1919

Wilson Wellington McDonald, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Nelson McDonald, was born in Malcom, Ia., Aug. 28th, 1918, and died at their home Feb'y 28th, 1919, aged just six months. The illness was of but few days' duration. The little one will be missed from the home circle. The sympathy of the community goes to the bereaved ones, the more in this, the second child being taken from the home in so short time, but (unreadable) to the home where there is no sickness or death; neither sadness nor sighing; where parting shall be no more.

Funeral services Sunday afternoon, conducted by Rev. W.B. Ireland, and burial in Ivy Hill cemetery.

Transcriber Note: Newspaper copy was dark and hard to read. The unreadable word looks like "translated" and "W.B. Ireland" may be "W.D. Ireland".
