Dwight Fagerquist

The proud owner of a handsome new bicycle, which his father had presented him but three days before, Dwight Fagerquist, 13 years old, was injured in an accident Tuesday afternoon, which resulted in his death a few hours later at the Wesleyan hospital. The lad was riding home from the Wheeler school and while going over a high road crossing his wheel was overturned with such force as to thrust the end of a handle bar into his stomach. His father, F. F. Fagerquist, an architect, at 719 insurance building, was notified at once. The surviving members of his immediate family are a father, mother and two sisters. Funeral services will be held at the Peoples Presbyterian church at 2 o'clock pm Saturday.
