Headlines:  Death Twice Visits Lake Odessa Home.  Only Son Died of Pneumonia 
While Serving Country; Now Daughter and Only Remaining Child is Taken.

In the death of Miss Isabell Vetter, 24 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. 
A. Vetter of Lake Odessa, the family has suffered a second tragic sorrow 
within a few years, this latest death taking from them their only remaining 
child.

Four years ago Paul Vetter, their only son, died at Camp Taylor in Kentucky 
where he had gone in the service of his country and where he was stricken with 
flu.  Pneumonia followed and he died.  The death of the remaining child, 
Isabell, resulted it is believed from complications which ensued from the 
effects of ptomaine poisoning following the eating of chop suey.

Mr. Vetter was for 10 years prominent in Lake Odessa where he conducted 
hardware store, which he disposed of about two months ago.

Miss Isabell Vetter, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Vetter. of lake 
Odessa died at her home Sunday afternoon at 2:30 after an illness of four 
weeks.  Her death was due to ptomaine poison, which developed, it is said, 
after eating chop suey.

She was 24 years of age, a graduate of Lake Odessa high school and was 
employed as bookkeeper for the Michigan Calendar Publishing company, at Grand 
Rapids.  Before going to Grand Rapids she was the leader of the Camp Fire 
Girls.  Her young life will be greatly missed not only by her parents but by 
all who knew her.

The funeral will be held Wednesday afternoon at 2:00 o’clock from the home.
