Charles Ernest Mallory.

Charles Ernest Mallory, son of Mr. And Mrs. C. R. Mallory, died at the home of his parents in Tonkawa, on Wednesday morning Dec. 4th, 1900, aged 12 years, 1 month and 3 days. He had suffered for more than five weeks with the disease known as appendicitis. Carl, as he was known by his playmates, was a bright, manly little fellow, and his death cast a gloom over the entire town, because nearly everyone knew and loved him. Rev. Kleinsteiber conducted the funeral services at the M. E. church at 3 o’clock p.m., and the entire school attended in a body, after which the interment took place in Odd Fellow’s cemetery.
The grief stricken parents and brothers have the heartfelt sympathy of all who know them.
