SCARLET FEVER CLAIMS VICTIM

The family of C. D. Dimmick of east Grant street was called upon to part with their little daughter, Icis Luella, who passed away last Tuesday afternoon at one o’clock after a five week siege of scarlet fever which later developed into dropsy and Bright’s disease.

The family has been under quarantine for scarlet fever for several weeks, one of the little boys being very ill also.

Little Icis was born April 24, 1915 at Decatur, Nebraska, and would have been eight years old next month. She was in the 3rd grade at school where she was a bright little pupil. She was the fourth child in a family of five children and leaves, besides her parents, two sisters, Una and Cristalena and two brothers, Austin and Lynn, besides a number of close relatives who mourn her early demise.

Funeral services were necessarily short on account of the nature of the disease; a prayer service by Rev. A. D. Smalley of the Baptist church at the grave being held on Wednesday afternoon at two o’clock.

Mr. and Mrs. Dimmick and family have lived in Blair but a few years, but have made many friends who sympathize with them in their hour of sorrow.
