FOGLESONG, VELMA and DELMA
(30 Sep 1920, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
DEATH OF TWINS.
Velma and Delma Foglesong, twin girls aged one year, died last Thursday at
the home of W. J. Price at Elk City, of cerebro-meningitis.  They were the
children of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Foglesong of Hooker, Okla.  The bodies were
prepared for burial by Grubitz & Son and taken to Hooker Friday for
interment.  Mrs. F. A. Figdon accompanied the grief stricken parents.
Mrs. Foglesong came here four weeks ago to visit her sister, Mrs. Price,
and a week later the babes became ill.  Everything possible was done for
them, Drs. Standifer, Tisdal, Kirkpatrick, also Dr. Stone of Sayre, being
in attendance, but the hand of death could not be stayed.  The parents,
with a four year old daughter, are left to mourn the loss of the little
ones.  The deepest sympathy of our people was extended to the bereaved
ones.
