Another Dies of Lockjaw
Helen, Eight Year Old Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. Beaudette, Died This Morning
Serum Fails to Save Life
Second Victim of Dread Tetanus in Three Days - Stepped on Nail Last Monday
Tetanus has within three days time claimed two little victims in Escanaba. On Thursday afternoon John D. Howard, two and one-half year old son of Mr. and Mrs. John D. Howard succumbed to the disease after an illness of only a few days and this morning at one o'clock, Helen, the eight year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Baudette of St. Clair street, succumbed to the same disease.
The death of the child came as a great surprise and shock. On Monday she stepped on a nail which penetrated but a short distance into her foot. The wound healed but on Thursday evening she grew feverish and yesterday morning it was determined that she was suffering from lockjaw. The tetanus serum sent here from Chicago for the use of physicians who were battling to save the life of the Howard child, was made use of and it was thought for a time that the child's life had been saved. Late last night, however, she began to sink and death claimed her at one o'clock this morning.
The child was an exceptionally bright and lovable one and her sudden death has nearly prostrated her parents.
The body will be shipped to Nadeau this evening and burial will be made there Sunday afternoon. Father Spurline will officiate.
The child is survived by her parents, four brothers and four sisters.
