Pilot 16 Nov 1899

Mr. and Mrs. Harry Higley mourn the loss of their little two year old boy, Carlysle Dewey, of acute pneumonia. Sometime ago the little fellow was taken down with malarial fever, which resulted in a fatal attack of the above named disease. The funeral will be held from the house today at 3:00 p.m., Rev. A. T. Young officiating. The bereaved family have the sympathy of many friends and neighbors in the loss of one of the brightest little fellows in the city. At the present time nearly the entire family is bedridden, in fact all are with the exception of Mr. Higley. The condition of the rest of the family is somewhat improved and all are probably out of danger unless complications set in.
