Frank Maloy’s Little Daughter is Very Ill.

For two or three days Catherine, the 9-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Maloy, of Lowell, has been very sick and at this time there is only a very small chance of saving her life. One day last week Catherine accompanied her mother to Chicago and after her return that evening she became very sick and her fever reached 106. It was at first believed that something she had eaten had caused ptomaine poisoning .but was later decided that the sickness was of a germ nature and she was treated with antitoxin. The physicians held out no hope to the parents and Sunday morning the grandmother, Mrs. Michael Eger, and daughter, Miss Lizzie, went there from Rensselaer. They returned at 11:09 today, with the news'that the child a trifle brighter but recovery was still regarded as only a remote chance.
