(1 Feb 1923, Thursday, Elk City News Democrat, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK): Roger Mills County News column: "The sorrows of others throws a shadow over me." Especially when one of my former pupils is made to mourn, as did Ezra Morris and wife, who lost their little son, called Milton Jr. Saturday morning. An older child had been suffering with flu and the little one that had always been so robust and healthy was not considered seriously ill till diphtheria developed, although nothing, skill and love could do was left undone. The little man passed away at 6:00 o'clock Saturday morning and was laid to rest that afternoon. Milton Jr. was 1 year and 22 days old and left to mourn his loss his parents and brothers, sisters and a host of other near relatives. --------------------------------------------------- Return to Beckham County Archives: http://www.usgwarchives.net/ok/beckham/beckham.html
