OLD ACCIDENT ENDS IN DEATH
Lloyd Lamberton injured last winter is dead
THROWN FROM CUTTER
And Heart Enlargement Developes from Injuries
Lloyd Lamberton, age 16 years, only son of Mr.a nd Mrs. F.B.Lamberton, residing northeast of Niles, passed away last night about 9 o'clock at the home of his parents.
The young man has been ill since last January with rheumatism and heart disease, the latter ailment being caused by a peculiar accident.
The young man and his sister were driving along Broadway enroute to school last January when the cutter was overturned and both were thrown out, his sister being uninjured but Lloyd had several ribs so bent that the heart was affected.
The accident occurred on Wednesday and since the following Friday he practically has been an invalid.
Lloyd was putting his first year in the High school and was a student for whom a promising career was in store. He was popular with teachers and students alike, and his untimely demise causes them deep regret.
Lloyd was born in Langford, S.D., and had always lived there until last December when the family moved back to the country north of Niles, his father's old home, Mr. Lamberton having purchased the Carl Sterner farm.
The surviving members of the family and the parents and sister mentioned.
The funeral will be held Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence. Interment will occur at Silver Brook.
