Simpson TWO BROTHERS TAKEN WITHIN FIVE WEEKS HEAVY BLOW TO BEREAVED ONES Youth Suffered Recently from an Attack of Diptheria Which Left Him in a Weakened Condition and Succumbs to Sudden Attack of Heart Trouble Twice within six weeks the angel of death has visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Simpson, on Fifth street, and bereft them of their children and their bereavement calls forth the sympathy of the community. On July 3rd their fifteen-year-old son, John, was taken by death as he was recovering from an attack of mumps and on Wednesday morning about half past twelve their oldest son, Christopher (sic--Christian), aged seventeen, suddenly succumbed to paralysis of the heart. The youth had apparently recovered from an attack of diptheria with which he was stricken three weeks ago. He was not considered dangerously ill at any time, most of the time being up and around the house, and the quarantine on the house was lifted a week ago. On Tuesday he was around and seemed to be gaining in strength and was in good spirits. Shortly after twelve o'clock on Tuesday night he suffered an attack of illness and before the doctor who was summoned could arrived had passed away. His death is ascribed to heart failure consequent on the attack of the disease from which he suffered. Christian George Steele Simpson lived all his short life in LeMars, where he was born on March 24, 1893. He was attending high school and when not at school was employed in the Bennison store and also carried papers for the Sentinel office. He was a good faithful lad, anxious to help his parents and earn what he could and was ambitious to get along at his studies and was looking forward with a youth's anticipation to a bright successful career. He and his brother John, who died July 3rd, were great chums, even for brothers, and like David and Jonathan, in death they were not divided. Chris leaves, besides his parents, a brother and two sisters to mourn his early death. The funeral will be held at the residence this afternoon. Rev. W. G. Moore, of the First Presbyterian church, will conduct the service.
