Fairmont Vicinity: Eugene Merle, son of Fred and Anna Pommitt, was born August 23, 1925, and departed this life Sept. 25, 1929, age 4 years, 1 month, and 2 days. The little one was stricken 3 months ago with the dreadful disease of sarachoma and although all that surgical skill and wisdom could do, and all that a loving father and mother could do, was done for him, it was all in vain, and the death angel came Wednesday morning at 1 o'clock and took the painracked sufferer home to heaven. Eugene was given to God in Christian baptism at the Presbyterian church in Enid in infancy. He leaves to mourn his death, his father and mother, one brother, Warren, 8 years old, his grandparents, and a host of other relatives.
