LEARY, CAROLINE SOPHIA
(24 Sep 1903, Thursday, Western Star, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
The entire community was deeply grieved and shocked at the tragic death of
Judge Leary's little daughter, Caroline, aged about fourteen months.  The
little girl was toddling about the yard last Tuesday and fell head
foremost into a tub of water and was drowned before the accident was
discovered a few minutes afterward.  Every effort which kind hands and
loving hearts could do, was made to restore her but in vain.  Universal
sympathy attends the bereaved in this untoward misfortunate.  The child
was interred at the Cheyenne cemetery Wednesday afternoon in the presence
of many mourning and sympathizing friends.  Cheyenne Sunbeam.
