PARENTS LOSE THEIR INFANT SON

The sympathy of the community is extended to Mr. and Mrs. Peter Melchior 
in the death of their new born son who died on Saturday. The child was 
born on the preceding Wednesday, but its tiny grasp on life was too frail 
to endure and its spirit passed to a better world. The funeral was held 
on Sunday afternoon. [ed. note: child named Peter Albert Melchior]
