Harold Day, the six year old son of Mr. & Mrs. George U Day, 307 N. Fourth St., died at the City Hospital Sunday morning at 1:35 o'clock from a fractured skull he received in an accident Saturday evening on Fourth St. at the library when he was struck by a Ford automobile driven by Glen Geese of West Lafayette.
Following the accident, the child was rushed to city hospital in an unconscious condition. Efforts to save the child's life proved futile.
