OBITUARY

Charles Cook, only son of Rev. Thos. G. Cook, formerly pastor of the First Methodist church of this city, died Wednesday afternoon, November 4th at four o'clock, at the Samaritan hospital in Sioux City, Iowa. Charles was bright, beautiful lad of eleven years, and those whose pleasure it was to be with him often, dearly loved and admired the warm, affectionate, loving hearted boy and the memory of the years when he moved among his loved ones will be to them more precious than rubies.  Rev. and Mrs. Cook and family have the sincere sympathy of the entire community.
