Felts of Capron. Peculiarly sad was the death of this boy and the hearts of the people of the community melt in sympathy for the bereaved parents, brothers and sisters. He was a manly little fellow, and he possessed traits which endeared him to those who knew him and came in daily contact with him. Especially did these traits manifest themselves during his sickness, and he bore up under his suffering with a cheerfulness that proclaimed him patient, uncomplaining, and unafraid to answer the final summons. The body was brought to Capron Tuesday morning and interment was made in the family burying ground.
