10 Sept., 1909 - Kennard Enterprise - Ray Bates

Ray, the little two year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Bates, died last Wednesday afternoon of cholera infantum, after a sickness of only four days. He was dangerously ill from the start and everything that human hands could do was done to relieve the little sufferer. He was a lovely, sunny-natured child, and in his short life had endeared himself to all those about him. Funeral was held Thursday at 2 p.m., Rev. Schafer officiating. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved ones.

Note: Parents are Thomas W. Bates and Laura M. Caldwell Bates.

Note: Birth date 3 Nov 1907; Death date 8 Sept 1909

Note: Burial: Kennard Cemetery, Kennard, Washington County Nebraska, USA, Plot: Blk 5 Lt 19 Sp 1
