Wayne Kinney Norris, youngest son of Guthrie
and Osta Norris, was born Sept. 25, 1908, and departed this life Sept. 3, 1912,
age 3 years, 11 months and 21 days.
On Monday morning he was playing in the yard
when he ran to call his papa to eat breakfast with him when a little colt
kicked him. He ran to his manna and told
her. The doctor was called but it was
thought to be nothing serious, but that evening he began to get worse and the
doctor came again and called council from Centerville, when it was decided that
nothing could save his life but an operation.
He was taken to Centerville to the St. Joseph Hospital at 3 a.m., where
everything that medical aid and loving hands could do to ease his pain was
done, but it seemed as if appendicitis had already formed which was aggravated
by the hurt.,
The doctors did everything that could be done
but he passed away at 8:30 Tuesday morning.
The little darling was taken to the residence of Glendora and Pheba
Norris Tuesday afternoon. The funeral
was preached by Rev. Bear at the M. E. church at Jerome Wednesday afternoon
after which he was laid to rest in the Jerome cemetery.
A loving father, mother and three brothers
and a host of relatives are left to mourn his loss.
