Ionia Daily Sentinel-Fri. Aug. 11, 1911

Earl Raymond the little 5-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. T. S. Strickling Jr., died
Saturday afternoon August 5. The little fellow has been for the week at the home of his 
grandparents, Mr. And Mrs. Robinson near Ionia during the absence of his mother in 
Detroit. Friday, as he was not feeling well, but able to be playing about, they
started with him for Hubbardston. After driving a short distance he became partly paralyzed and 
scarcely able to speak. After they arrived here a physician was called a once and as
no hope was entertained of his recovery a telegram was sent to his mother in Detroit.
She arrived here Saturday just a few hours before his death. He was a terrible sufferer
during the doctors pronounced meningitis. 

The funeral was held at the house Tuesday at 2 p.m.  Rev. Mr. Brownlow of Carson
City  officiated. George and Howard Chick, Howard Reed and Frank Doten acted as
pallbearers. 

There were many beautiful floral tributes. The remains were take to the West Side 
cemetery for interment in the family lot. Earle was a bright, sturdy little fellow,
always seemingly in the best of health. All that kind and loving friends could do was done
to relieve his terrible sufferings, and there was a large attendance of sympathizing
friends at the burial service.
