Held Today
For Fargo Baby

     Funeral services were held at the Gospel Tabernacle in Wilder at 2 o'clock this afternoon for Gerald Virgil Lewis, seven-months old son of Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Lewis of Fargo.  The Rev. Mr. Beaver was in charge and interment was in the Wilder cemetery.
    The baby was found dead in bed by his parents Sunday morning.  The doctor who was called and Coroner William D. Talley of Nampa, believed death was due to suffocation by smothering, according to the coroner's report Sunday.  Peckham Funeral Chapel in Caldwell had charge of the burial.
