The child had been a sufferer from spinal trouble and this was recently complicated with measles, but the child seemed to be recovering, when it suddenly passed away. Dr. Bickford, who is taking care of Dr. Pickard’s practice during the absence of the latter, who is the physician to the Nelsen family, was called, but the child was dead when he arrived. Not having attended the case, and no other doctor having been called previously, Dr. Bickford declined to give a death certificate, although he said that everything seemed to be all right. He telephone to Health Officer Mooser, stating the case and the latter called up Coroner Davis. No arrangements have been made for the funeral.
