Waupaca Republican

January 19, 1906

Grace Lillian Yorkson the beautiful rosebud of promise who was born to Mr. and Mrs. C.A. Yorkson July 19, 1905, died Jan. 13, 1906, lacking but 4 days of being six months old. Pneumonia was the cause of death and everything possible was done to save the child but to no avail. God had called her to be numbered among the blessed innocent children in His realms above.

The funeral was held at the home Monday afternoon at two o’clock Rev. Geo. Hirst, officiating. Music and singing by Miss Maude Pipe, and several of the singers from the boys Choir of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church. Very many beautiful flowers were sent by friends from all parts of the city and at the Veterans’ Home. Mr. and Mrs. Yorkson have the sympathy of their many friends over the loss of their bright little baby girl.
