This young man, for the last few years had been living in Arizona, hoping that the high altitude would be beneficial to him, but some days ago his doctors told him that he had only a short while to live, so he returned to home and loved ones.
Walter was a little over 29 years of age and contracted tuberculosis doing outdoor work during the flood of 1913. It became apparent that he was afflicted and he left for Arizona soon afterwards.
To the grief-stricken parents, brothers
and sisters The Tribune extends its deepest sympathy. |
