Clarence Eggers, aged 12 years, 6 months and 18 days, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm Eggers, died at his home northwest of Hopkins, Sept 10, 1899, of typhoid fever. The funeral was held at the house, conducted by Elder Leek, pastor of the Baptist church, after which the remains were interred in the Willard cemetery. He bore his sickness with great patience for one of his years and was ready to go, his last words being, “I will soon be there; I can hear the bells ringing now.” The parents desire to thank the friends and neighbors for the kindness shown during the sickness and death of their beloved son.
