Father and Son Dead

  Tobias Claycomb and his son Stanley, of Weyant, died Saturday morning, of 
typhoid fever, the latter preceding the former to the spirit world by a few 
hours.  On Sunday both bodies were taken to Osterburg and buried with one 
ceremony, Rev. E. E. Parson, pastor of the Lutheran church, conducting the 
service.  The father was fifty-six years old, the son fifteen.  A daughter died, 
of the fever, two weeks ago and other members of the family are critically ill 
with the dread disease.  Mr. Claycomb was a most excellent man and will be 
missed by the community in which he lived.
