It will be with sincere regret that the many friends of Mr. and Mrs.H. W. Chamberlain will hear of the death of their son Harry, whichoccurred at 12 o’clock today, after a lingering illness caused bytuberculosis. This sad blow will be deeply felt by the bereavedparents, as it takes from their homes and hearts one who was theirdelight and comfort, and whose prospects where exceedingly brightuntil the fell disease inserted its fangs in his system. Everythingthat skillful medical attention, fond care and tender nursing could dowas done, but it was unavailing.
