INFANT DIES

The few weeks' old infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred J. Oerlerking died Tuesday of last week, after an illness from double pneumonia, lasting from the preceding day only.

The funeral service for the little one was held at the Lutheran Church, on Wednesday, the day following its death. Rev. P.H. Roesel delivered the funeral sermon.

Interment was made in the Lutheran cemetery beside a twin sister who died at birth. The sudden shock caused by her baby's short and fatal illness caused the mother to collapse from the strain of anxiety and she has since been at the home of Mr. Oelerking's father, Henry Oelerking, in very serious condition.

The heartfelt sympathy of the people of the community goes out to the parents in their double bereavement.
