From http://www.rootsweb.com/~txcolora/obits/obitsblair.htm Died, at the family home northeast of Weimar late Sunday afternoon, the little son [Lester] of Mr. & Mrs. Elmer D. Blair, after an illness of only five days, of a combination of bilious fever and hemorrhage of the bowels. This bright and interesting little child was seen by the writer only a few days ago when he ran out to kiss his papa goodbye as the latter was leaving home for a few hours. Then he was the picture of health. So evident was the strong tie between the grown man and the little child that it attracted attention and comment on our part. We little knew or thought at that time that death was lurking near that happy, contented home. But God knows what is best for us, and although the temptation is strong to question his decree in this instance at least, the sorrowing hearts are bowed down and feeble lips murmur "Thy will be done." Our sincere and heartfelt sympathy is extended Mr. and Mrs. Blair in the loss of their beloved child. God pity and comfort them, is our sincere wish. The little body was laid to rest in the cemetery at Osage Monday Afternoon. Weimar Mercury, 22 September 1900 |
