Jesse Adlum, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Homer Vaughn, died Thursday afternoon at 1.30 o'clock. Her age was 2 years, 4 months and 6 days. She was attacked with bronchial pneumonia about three weeks ago, and was seriously ill until Tuesday, when she appeared to be so much better that her parents confidently expected a complete restoration to health. On Wednesday morning, however, she was seized with inward spasms in which she continued until death claimed her. Jesse was a sweet, beautiful child, bright and attractive and the idol of her now distracted parents. Altoona Tribune, Altoona, Pa., Thursday, March 29, 1883, page 3
