Ward, Son of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence
Hill, Dies From Appendicitis
On Thursday, Nov. 9.
Ward Hill, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence E. Hill, aged 8 years, who was in a precarious condition at the Northwestern hospital when the
Union went to press last week, died that evening, November 9. The disease (appendicitis) from which thelittle fellow died had advanced to a point when he was taken to the hospital
where no medical or surgical skill could save his life.
Funeral services were conducted by Rev. E. B. Service at the Methodist church on Saturday morning at 10 and were largely attended, many
of the children of the Whittier school and their teachers being among those in attendance. The school was closed, out of respect to the little boy who had been one of its pupils. Rev. Service delivered an impressive sermon and a quartet composed of Mrs. C. A. Caley, Mrs. L. S. Briggs, Guy Ewing and Arthur Roos rendered vocal selections. Mrs. Ewing was the accompanist. The casket in whichreposed the remains of the child was covered with pretty flowers. Six classmates of Ward's at the Whittier school acted in the capacity of pallbearers. The interment was in Oak Knoll cemetery.
Ward Hill was a bright, good natured little fellow and his taking away was a heavy blow to his parents, brothers and sisters, with whom the community sympathizes in their hour of sorrow. A father, mother, two brothers and three sisters survive him.
