Story about Claude's death from a tape made of Franklin Holladay Jr.

Frank Holladay Sr. had a thrashing machine and Claude and others had taken it up to the Gibbons farm to thrash his wheat. It was hot and on the way back Claude was complaining of his stomach hurting. When they got to the Aldrich farm, which was about half way between the Gibbons and the Holladay farms, Claude stopped at his mother's house to get a drink of water. While he was there he got worse, and a Doctor was called. The doctors then didn't know what was wrong with him. He only lived 1 1/2 or 2 days after that. Franklin says that now they know it was appendicitis.
