Child Choked to Death
A sad accident happened in our city last Saturday when little Thomas Howard Brashears aged nearly 4 years, got a small particle in his windpipe and choked to death.
The little fellow, whose father W. J. Brashears lives several miles northwest of Davis, was visiting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Brewer in Davis, who had kept him a good deal since his mother's death before he was one year old. With some other children he was eating some peons, a nut similar to peanuts, which had been sent here from Mexico by a friend. One of the nuts lodged in his throat and caused his death.
Interment was in Green Hill cemetery Sunday afternoon, Rev. J. J. Franklin conducting the service.
Little Thomas was a bright child, beloved by relatives and friends alike, and his sudden demise is a sad blow.
