Three deaths have occurred in the county the past week from complications following measles.
…As the state board of health has issued an order prohibiting public funeral, short services were held at the graves...
The third death was that of Genevieve, the three-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ezra Phelps. She died Tuesday morning and funeral services were held at the cemetery Wednesday afternoon. Genevieve was an exceedingly bright child for her age and her parents are deeply grieved over her death.
