Death of Francis Wolf.

Medaryville Advertiser. Like a flower which has been called from Paradise to this world to remain but a short time and entwine itself into the hearts of a household and tfien again to be wafted back to eternity, Francis N., the baby son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Wolf died at the home in Chalmers, death being caused by spinal meningitis with which the little sufferer was afflicted for about a week before death came to its relief. Francis N. Wolf, son of Albert and Emma Wolf, was born at Rensselaer, Ind., Dec. 17, 1914, and died in Chalmers, July 4, 1916, at 4:30 a. m., aged 1 year, 6 months and 17 days. In addition to the father and mother, two sisters and two brothers are left to mourn this visitation of the grim reaper who spares neither the young or old neither weak or strong, the humble or mighty. Their consolation in this hour of affliction is emhodie 1 in the words of Him who said “Suffer little children to come unto me, for such is the Kingdom of Heaven.” The remains were taken to Rensselaer Wednesday morning, where the funeral was conducted at St. Augustine’s church. Interment was made in Mt. Calvary cemetery at that place.
