Cause of Death: Laryngeal Diptheria, duration 3 Days. (Definition: Laryngeal diphtheria, which involves the voice box or larynx, is the form most likely to produce serious complications. The fever is usually higher in this form of diphtheria (103-104°F or 39.4-40°C) and the patient is very weak. Patients may have a severe cough, have difficulty breathing, or lose their voice completely. The development of a "bull neck" indicates a high level of exotoxin in the bloodstream. Obstruction of the airway may result in respiratory compromise and death.)
I visited the cemetery on February 11, 2003 and Emma's tombstone is no where to be found. I didn't take pictures of the tombstone when I was there in 1992 and now many of the stones in this cemetery have been totally destroyed by vandals.........
