The Ionia Daily Sentinel-Standard, Monday, November 9, 1942
Edward Walling, three-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Walling, who live 
just west of Saranac on M-21, was drowned Sunday afternoon in a spring just 
back of the home of his parents.  Edward, who was drowned in two feet of 
water, was found almost immediately by his father, who tried to resuscitate 
him but failed.  The child was taken to Saranac and when no doctor could be 
located Druggist Louis Koss and Cecil Morris tried to revive him.  Later two 
doctors worked over him but without avail.  It is believed the tot removed the 
cover from the spring, bent over to get a drink and toppled in.  

He is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Walling and two brothers, 
Robert LeRoy and Ronald.  Funeral services will be held Wednesday afternoon at 
2 o’clock at the Morris funeral home and burial will be in Saranac cemetery.
