“In Town and Township – Wood River”
The death of the little five year old son of Mr. and Mrs. John Williams which occurred at the home northeast of Wood River Monday was one of the saddest events that the writer has had occasion to chronicle for some time. The little fellow was injured one day last week by cutting his foot on a piece of glass, and something similar to blood poisoning set in. After a consultation Drs. McGrath of Grand Island and Rowe of this place, an operation was performed, but after all possible had been done to alleviate his sufferings, the brave little fellow passed away. The funeral was held Tuesday in the Methodist church by Rev. Irwin and the remains laid to rest in the Wood River cemetery.
