Dick Rensink’s infant baby aged eighteen months, died from the effects of an operation for the removal of a tumor, that weighed three and a half pounds. The funeral was held form the Holland church Monday and the services were conducted by Rev. Wolvins. Mr. and Mrs. Rensink have the sympathy of all our people in their sad loss. The baby has been sick for a long time from the effects of the tumor.
