Henry Schoenberg, seventeen year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Schoenberg of Spring Hill, died at the Melorse Hospital on Friday morning three days after being operated upon for a ruptured appendix. He was taken sick very suddenly on Tuesday and by the time an operation was possible the poison from the broken appendix had penetrated his system and it was impossible for him to rally. At the time he was taken sick he was at the home of Jos. Welle of Meire Grove and was attending Melrose High School. While he gave evidence of much more than the ordinary ability and had already won a large number of friends. Funeral services were held at Spring Hill on Tuesday.
