Lumis – In Upper Uwchland, on Thursday, June 22nd, 1876, Lewis L., son of John 
and Kate Lumis, aged 2 years and 5 months.

E're sin could blight or sorrow fade,
Death came with friendly care.
This lovely bud to Heaven conveyed
And bade him blossoms there.

A child dies of sun stroke – Lewis Lomas, an interesting son of Mr. John Lomas, 
of West Vincent Township, this county, died at 6 o'clock on Thursday morning, 
the 22nd inst. of sun stroke. The child, who was about two and a half years of 
age, went out in the field to his father, bareheaded, and while there was taken 
ill. He was removed to the house and a physician called in who pronounced the 
case one of light sunstroke. On Wednesday morning the little fellow seemed 
better, but towards noon he was taken with convulsions, and grew worse until the 
following day, when death intervened. The bereavement is a sad one to the family 
and relatives of the deceased.


Newpaper mistake – Lomas should be Lumis
