From the Alton Democrat of Nov 4, 1893 Orange City News.
Tuesday occurred the funeral of Mr. and Mrs. Gerrit Raak's infant child, which died Sunday. We extend sympathy to them in their deep affliction.
(This is believed to be the infant son of Geert Raak 1867- 2 Aug 1900, and Cynthia 'Gesina' Wesselink, born Dec 1892 and died abt Nov 1, 1893. Cynthia later married Jacob Mieras. In an entry on ancestry.com is mentioned a son Gerrit born Dec 1892. )
