Myers Died Yesterday Morning. Death came to this estimable young business man yesterday morning at 2:45, at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William C. Myers in Francesville. The cause of his death was influenza complicated with pneumonia. He became sick from the disease while on a business trip to Sallyards, Kansas, a week ago Sunday and returned the following Wednesday morning. His wife, who had been visiting in West Liberty, Iowa, came home the next day, and she became sick with the disease, but in milder form. Harry's attack was of a most virulent nature and he gradually grew worse, the end coming as a great a surprise to the family and friends who had hoped that his powerful physique would be able to resist the malady at the most critical stage. A more extended obituary will appear in next week's issue. The funeral will be held at the Christian church next Sunday afternoon at two o'clock. Rev. J. S. Van Orman will officiate. Burial will be made in the cemetery east of town. Published in The Francesville Tribune (Francesville, IN), on December 12, 1918, pg. 1. ~~~~ Obituary of Harry Myers-- Funeral Held Sunday.
