Earl Sanderson, youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Moore, was born in the town of Darlington, Wisconsin, June 11, 1905. He came with the family to the city of Darlington in 1909 and grew up in our midst. He attended our schools and was a member of the freshman class in high school. About Christmas, 1921, his health began to fail, gradually becoming worse until about two weeks ago he was taken to Dubuque for examination. Very grave symptoms were discovered and he was hurried to Chicago where an operation for tumor of the brain was performed last Sunday morning. He never rallied from the shock and passed quietly into the other world Tuesday night at 10:30.
Earl was until his last illness, a large, strong boy, full of energy with promise of a long, useful life. He was an obedient son in his home, a favorite with his school mates and his going brings them great sorrow.
He is survived by his parents, three brothers and three sisters: Will, Ray and Harry; Mrs. J.C. Harker of Waldick, Annie and Adelaide; also three nephews, five nieces, four uncles and three aunts.
The body was brought home on Wednesday evening and funeral services were held at the family residence Friday afternoon. Interment was made in Union Grove cemetery.
