A sad and deplorable accident happened Wednesday when the little boy baby about two years of age, of Mr. and Mrs. W.A. Dement, chocked to death in swallowing a piece of meat rind. The child was brought to the office of Dr. Morris, but was dead upon arrival here from their home just east of Spur.The little remains were interred Thursday in Spur Cemetery.
Mr. and Mrs. Dement have the sympathy of the entire country in this sudden and unexpected bereavement.
