SUDDEN DEATHS. - Two sudden deaths occurred in this city on Sunday...

... The other was a boy named Lowry B. [sic] Gardner whose parents
reside on Seventh avenue, East side.  On Saturday he was playing on
the street and apparently was in the enjoyment of excellent health,
little thinking that death would claim his as its victim ere another
day would roll around.  He died in the afternoon and will be buried
to- day.
