Bowen, Donald (27 SEP 1912 - 20 OCT 1930)

Donald William Bowen, age 18 years, died Monday morning shortly before noon at the Legault Hospital, after an illness of nearly a week, following an attack of post operative pneumonia.

The young man was brought to the hospital suffering with an attack of appendicitis to which he submitted to an operation, and which proved successful. Shortly after he developed a case of pneumonia, and in his weakened condition was not able to stand the shock of the operation and the illness too.

Donald Bowen was the son of Mr.a nd Mrs. Harlow Bowen, residents of the town of Hoard, residing four and one-half miles east and north of the city. He was an industrious young man of good character, and will be sadly missed by his parents and five other children in the family.

Funeral services are being held this afternoon from the Congregational Church at Curtiss (Clark Co., Wis.), the Rev. Sigglekow of Withee officiating, and burial will take place in Pine Hill Cemetery, north of Curtiss, Wis.
