Death of Lloydie Sherman

A sad event occurred last Sunday night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Sherman, in the death of their little two-year-old son, Lloyd. The little fellow, being their only child, was a joy and pride of their household, and to say that their grief was hard to bear is putting it mildly. Just a week previous to his death he was taken sick with scarlet fever, which developed so severely that medical aid could not save him. The funeral occurred Monday afternoon and the remains were buried in the Mona cemetery.

The remains of Mrs. Wheeler were taken through Osage Tuesday noon from Waterloo to Mona for interment. Mrs. Wheeler kept a hotel at Mona for a number of years.
