Aberdeen News September q
A telegram received this morn
ing from Sioux Falls brought the
sad informanation that Baby
Ruth, the little daughter of Mrs.
G. A. Crane, died last night. No
news of her sickness had reach
ed Aberdeen and the message
was one which gave the people a
shock for which they were Who'll
ly unprepared. Baby Ruth was
child of great promise and was
a favorite with the friends of the
family when Mr.. and Mrs. Crane
made their, home in Aberdeen.
Many friends here will mourn
the untimely taking away of
Baby Ruth and will deeply SYM
pathize with her parents in their
deep trouble.
