Charles Everett Eller, two years of age, son of Mrs. Mary Eller, 608 north Monroe street, died at 6:20 p.m. Saturday at the Bloomington hospital, of acute nephritis and pneumonia, believed to have resulted from a general poisoning of his body from a fall into the vault of a toilet.

The father died on June 15 of this year after having been ill several months. The child was violently ill immediately after the experience and had never been completely well since.
He is survived by his mother, Mrs. Mary Eller; three brothers, Robert,
Donald and John Edward, and one sister, Luella Mae.
