Friends were unable to get word to the father who is at work some distance from communication. ------------------------------- Our little community is profoundly stirred in sympathic union with the relatives of little Roger Tabor, infant child of Oney Tabor whose life was so abruptly ended during the week by the chilling frost of death. The child, motherless even at birth, about a year ago, has so entwined itself into the lifes and affections of its grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Rogers, of Iron King and Mr. and Mrs. Tabor of Prescott, that the loss of the little one will be deeply lamented by them for some time to come. The burial took place in Prescott where the mother and child now sleep side by side. --------------------------------
