Son of G.K. and G.A. Mead

31 Dec., 1896 - The Pilot - Young Son of Guy Mead

The little son of Guy Mead, of this place, died last Saturday and was buried in the Blair cemetery Monday. He was 1 year, 9 mos. and 12 days old. Mr. Mead has been clerking in a drug store at Schuyler but came over Christmas on account of the serious condition of his boy. The bereaved parents have the deep sympathy of the community in the loss of one of the sweetest of children, one that had the appearance of a wax figure as it lay in the casket.
