Urich Herald, Urich MO, Dec 26 1918 - Ralph Wesley Allen was born Oct. 14, 1904, and died Dec. 10, 1918, aged 14 years, one month and 26 days. He was the youngest son of Henry and Kate Allen, besides who he leaves to mourn his loss, two brothers, Frank Allen, of Montrose, William Allen, of Appleton City, four sisters, Mrs. Bert Leet and Mrs. Dave Shroder, of Urich, Mrs. Neal Miller, of Montrose, and Elsie Allen, at home, and a host of other relatives and friends. He passed away after a short illness of pneumonia. He was a loving son and brother. The above is a brief notice of a life so short that we could not expect it to influence the material progress of the world or its latent possibilities to effect the social fabric of a community, but brief though it was and obscure as it may seem we know it has made an impression on the hearts and lives of his fond parents that will reach across the shores of time. In this connection we are reminded that human life, especially of a child, is the most precious treasure that earth affords. No treasure is rare enough to tempt an exchange of a loved one, because God implanted in us the great principle of love. After a few words of prayer the body was laid to rest in White Oak Cemetery. The friends were very kind to the family during the last days, death and burial of our dear son for which we earnestly thank them. His mother.
