FROM EFFECTS OF DIPTHERIA
Benjamin Andrews Died Yesterday Afternoon
Benjamin M. Andrews, the 15-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Andrews of Blue Creek township, died Monday afternoon at the home of his parents at two o'clock, death resulting from the effects of diptheria, from which he had suffered for eight weeks. The young man was one of the most popular men in Blue Creek township and had a host of friends. He contracted the dread disease some time ago and battled long and hard to overcome the effects, but it had taken too firm a hold and his constitution was unable to withstand the ravagings of the same. The funeral services will be held tomorrow morning at ten thirty o'clock at the M. E. church at Monroe and interment will be made in the Ray cemetery.
