The boy and one of the girls, of the triplets born to Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Bupp last Saturday were buried Tuesday in Versailles cemetery. The other little girl is very weak and will hardly survive. (Duquesne Times, Friday, May 19, 1905, p 7)

Two Baby Daughters and One Son Born to Mr. and Mrs. John E. Bupp of West Grant Avenue—Two of the Little Ones Die.
A practical and conclusive demonstration of the fact that there is no tendency towards race suicide in Duquesne was given during the past week, when triplets were born to Mr. and Mrs. John E. Bupp. The event has aroused considerable interest.
Mr. and Mrs. Bupp, the parents, reside in the Walsh block, at the corner of West Grant avenue and North First street, and have been residents of the town for several years. Mr. Bupp is a locomotive engineer on the Pittsburg, Virginia and Charleston railroad and is well-known. The event that stirred the household occurred last Saturday evening. Dr. C. F. Keyser was in attendance and the arrival of the trio was as great a surprise to him as to the parents. The triplets consisted of two girls and one boy. The latter was a still born, while one of the girls lived only until Sunday noon. The remaining one, a little girl, is getting along nicely and it is believed she will live. The condition of the mother is likewise all that could be desired.
The remains of the little boy and girl were viewed by many persons and general regret was expressed that they had not been permitted to live. They were interred in one casket in Versailles cemetery on Monday afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. Bupp have one other child, a daughter nearly three years.
During the past month four triplets have arrived in Allegheny county, and the number is said to be the record for many years. (Duquesne Observer May 19, 1905, p 5)
