Translated:
The approximately four-week-old baby of Mr. and Mrs. Gerrit de Groot from Carmel was unexpectedly taken from them yesterday by death. The little one had suffered from stomach problems for a few days, but nothing serious was feared. Yesterday morning the child had only just woke when he had a seizure of convulsions, in which he remained vigilant. We express our sympathy to the deeply saddened parents.
