HUNT, DENNIS, WILLCOME
(13 Jan 1916, Elk City News Democrat, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
DEATH OF LITTLE CHILD
Dennis Willcome Hunt, son of Mr. and Mrs. Claude Hunt, died in Elk City,
Tuesday, the 11th of gastritis.  He had diptheria two weeks ago and was
thought to be getting along all right, but complications set in, which
cause his death.  The remains were taken to Hammon that evening, and
buried the following day at that place.
Little Dennis was two years, ten months and two days old.  He was the
pride of his parents and the joy of the home.  His prattling speech and
happy laugh will be missed, but the loved ones can rest assured that some
day they can meet him again.  Christ said "Suffer little children to come
unto me and forbid them not."  "I take these little lambs said He, And lay
them in My breast Protection they shall find in Me.  In Me be ever blest."
