four weeks, Miles Lee, son of
Mrs. Ida Lee, was forced to sur
render to the ravages of disease,
and died Sunday night from the
effects of typhoid fever.
The boy had been in a precar-
ious condition some ten days
be fore his death, but had exper-
fenced a change, and his rela-
tives and the attending physician
began to hope, for his recovery,
but his vitality was not suf-
6cient to carry him over the
crisis and he suffered a reapse
which ended in death. He was
fifteen years of age and had re-
sided here for only a short time,
his mother having removed here
from Panguitch, their home, in
order to secure the benefit of the
public schools.
The body was taken to Pan
guitch for burial and was accom-
panied by the boys mother,
sisters and brothers and George
Walker. The people of Cedar
City extend to Mrs. Lee and
family their sympathy in this,
their hour of grief.
