Little Hazel May Drowned

   Hazel Grace May, the little daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Charles May, was drowned
under very sad circumstances last Friday Morning, January 7, 1916, at their home
on Peak Avenue.
   The family had retired for the night before leaving water in the bath tub. 
In the morning the parents arose, leaving the child sleeping.  Later on when
Mrs. May went to see if the baby was awake found the bed empty, and upon
searching further found the almost lifeless body of her child in the water in
the bath tub with her doll.  The supposition is that she was giving her doll a
bath and fell in herself.
   Medical assistance was called and every effort was made to resuscitate the
little one, but without avail.
   Hazel Grace was 2 years and one month old and a very bright and lovable
child.  She was the only child of her parents, for whom deep sympathy is felt
throughout the community.
   A short funeral service was conducted by Rev. H. H. Buckner at the family
residence on Saturday morning and then the body was taken to Modesto by
automobile for interment.
   Mrs. May’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Outland, came over from Modesto to take Mr.
and Mrs. May in their automobile, and Clarence Goshey took the body over in his
machine.
