DEATH OF LITTLE MARJORIE WEST
The death of Rita Majorie [sic] West, the 5-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roy West, occurred Tuesday afternoon, at 2 o'clock at Bethel hospital. She had been ill of pneumonia about a week. Sunday her condition seemed much improved but on the following day there was a relapse and yesterday morning she was taken to Bethel hospital. She was a particularly bright, sweet little tot and at the age when the family interests were centered in all the intimate little doings and sayings of Rita. She was a member of the primary department of the Congregational Sunday school, and will be greatly missed by all her little associates in the department.
The funeral will be held at the family residence at 501 East Third street Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
