Postville Review, Fri., 11 June 1915.

A very sad incident marked the closing performance of the Camelia Concert Co.s engagement in Frankville. As usual a gold watch was given to the most popular young lady and a diamond ring to the handsomest baby in town, the latter was awarded to the three month's old baby of Mr. and Mrs. Claude Van Wey. The baby had been asleep all through the performance which was attended by a large crowd, and was taken by its grandmother, Mrs. J. J. Van Wey, to her home where it was discovered that the child was dead. Dr. Nash, who was hastily summoned, stated that it had been dead for an hour or more. Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock. A large circle of friends sympathize with the sorrowing parents in their affliction.
