FUNERAL OF LITTLE MADELINE HIATT
 
One of the saddest funerals held in Payette for some time was that of little 
Madeline Hiatt, the four year old daughter of Dr. and Mrs. E. C. Hiatt of 
Weiser, who died from eating home-canned corn which caused botulism poison.  
On Tuesday of last week the little girl ate a small portion of canned corn 
from a jar which her mother had left open on the kitchen table intending to 
throw it out as it had a peculiar odor.  She was seized with a vomiting spell 
and her eyes and throat soon became effected as the case of the Cambridge 
victim of botulism, and died within 24 hours.  The body being brought to 
Payette where the funeral wa held from the Christian Church, Thursday 
afternoon at 2 o'clock.
 
Dr. Hiatt is a son of Mr. and Mrs. L. P. Hiatt of this city, and is well known 
here having followed his profession here several years ago before moving to 
Weiser.  The family have many sympathising friends in this community.
