DELLA BENNETT SHRINER Della Bennett Shriner, little two year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Byron Shriner of the Haxtun country, died on Monday June 29. The little one was sick only a short time. She was taken with inflammation of the bowels, followed by congestion of the brain and spinal meningitis and the complication baffled all attempts to restore her to health. The funeral was conducted from the home on Tuesday, and the little body was laid to rest in the Haxtun cemetery. Roy Sutherland was up from Holyoke last Tuesday and Wednesday - Haxtun Herald. Roy has not been around to the Herald office with cigars yet nor has he given us the name of the lucky young lady whom he “wed.” IN MEMORIAM Howard, little son of Ed and Ellen Butterfield was born in Phillips County, Colorado, April 9, 1905 and died June 27, 1908, at the age of 3 years 2 months and 18 days. Little Howard had an attack of diabetes and after an illness of 3 months died. Everything in medical aid and careful nursing was all in vain, God saw fit to take the precious jewel to Himself to dwell with the angels. He was a lovely child and was the joy of the home. The funeral was held at the Pleasant Valley church June 28, Rev. Harmon officiating and the body was laid to rest in the Pleasant Valley cemetery. The family have the sympathy of all in their sorrow.
