C. C. CROWELL, 4TH DIED SUNDAY

C. C. Crowell, 4th, nine year old son of C. C. Crowell, 3rd, of Wisner, died last Sunday in an Omaha hospital, the victim of infantile paralysis from which he had suffered for 14 months.

The little fellow was cheerful to the end, and had won the hearts of physicians and nurses. He was kept in an iron lung for months and seemed on the road to recovery, but his weakened heart failed to meet the continued strain. Funeral services were held last Friday.

Deceased is a great great grandson of C. C. Crowell who was in business here fifty years ago, and who built the present building now known as the Crowell Memorial Home.
