Mr. and Mrs. John Van Wey were called upon to part with their baby boy, Monday night, Sept. 16th. The little fellow was taken sick on Friday with cholera infantum but was not thought very ill until Monday afternoon when there was a very sudden change for the worse, the disease going to his brain and car{r}ying him away at 10 o’clock that night. Little Frank was 16 months old. The funeral was held at the M. E. church yesterday, Rev. Stubbs and Mrs. Clulow officiating. The interment was made at the Frankville Cemetery.

Transcriber’s Note: His gravestone in the Frankville Cemetery shows he was born in May 15, 1893 and died in Sept. 20, 1894 which does not agree with the above.
