The community seven miles northwest of Foss was shocked Friday afternoon at the death of the baby son of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Northrip, who was drowned in a watering tank. The little fellow who was fifteen months old, and whose untimely death occurred on his birthday, wandered to the barn lot and tumbled into the tank of water which was used to water the stock of the place. - Foss Enterprise. --------------------------------------------------- Return to Beckham County Archives: http://www.usgwarchives.net/ok/beckham/beckham.html
