Died of Blood Poisoning.
Elva, the seven-year-old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Louis Henschell living
near town, died at the Northwestern
hospital last Friday from acute blood
poisoning. The child received a
bruise near its knee three days before
and nothing was thought of the injury
as there was no abrasion of the flesh.
The child became ill and had a very
high temperature and fever but it was
thought that it was a stomach derangement
and there were no serious results
feared. It became so much worse that
a doctor was consulted and when the
nature of the illness of the child was
discovered it was brought immediately
to the hospital for an operation to re
move the poisonous puss, but the
poison had accomplished its fatal
work before any relief could be given
the child. The funeral was held at
the M. E. church in Princeton Saturday
morning at ten o'clock, Rev. W.E.J.
Gratz officiating, and the interment
was at Oak Knoll. The child was born
April 14, 1897.
