Attempted translation:

Last Wednesday, the sad news was received that the youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. C. van Batavia, a young boy of almost 2 years, had died. Van Batavia was himself Wednesday with his family on a trip to Day County SD, when the small, which had never been very strong, was in the train sick. At Britton arrived a doctor as soon as possible but the best attempts were not allowed to benefit and after they arrival there the child died. The next day they accepted the return journey. Thursday was ordered to Hull to the earth. The sympathy with the distressed parents is general.
