Infantile Paralysis Causes Death
The 17 months old son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Jager passed away shortly after midnight this morning from infantile paralysis. The child was taken ill more that three weeks ago and has been seriously ill during this time and when complications developed he was unable to overcome them and death claimed him. Besides his parents he is survived by six brothers and sisters and to them sincere sympathy is extended in their bereavement. Funeral services will be held at the home at 10 Friday morning with the Rev. T. H. Harding in charge. Burial will be in Grace Hill cemetery.
