CHILD DEAD; MOTHER
IS DYING.

Death of Daughter May Hasten Demise
of Mrs. Charles Barker, Who
Has Been Ill Several Years.


Following an illness of several weeks with scarlet fever the 3-year-old daughter of Charles Barker, living on Kellar street in East Galena, died yesterday morning, and early last night death was momentarily expected to come to the wife and mother. Mrs. Barker has been under the care of a doctor about ten years but her most serious illness began the latter part of last December in the form of a complication of ailments. She began sinking yesterday after the death of the little girl and her condition during the afternoon was such that relatives expected the end to come at any time.

Mrs. Barker has spent most of her life in Galena and has a large acquaintance here. Her maiden name was Myrtle Bankson. Her mother and several children also live in East Galena.

Owing to Mrs. Barker's condition last evening it was impossible to complete arrangements for the child's funeral.
