Death Angel - Little Hattie Aged Thirteen Years, Dies This Morning After a Long and Painful Illness
The Angel of Death came to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Spencer A. Wilcox on Yajome street in this city shortly after eight 0'clock this morning and bore hence to realms of eternal happiness the sweet spirit of Hattie A. Wilcox, their little thirteen year-old daughter, who had suffered a long and painful disease.  The little girl was aged 13 years and 3 months.

Some two years ago while romping with her playmates at the family home in Capell Valley, she sustained a bruise on her left ankle.  But little was thought of it at first.  However, it grew steadily worse and finally blood-poisoning set in.  She was taken to a hospital in San Francisco for treatment in April of 1909.  She returned after some treatment but slightly improved and a few months later was again taken to San Francisco where at the Children's Hospital an operation was performed, her left leg being amputated.  But the shock of the operation was too great for the little one.  She seemed to slowly fade as a tender flower, and for several days past her demise had been anticipated by the loved ones at her bedside.  The end came quietly and peacefully and as a grateful relief from pain at the hour noted above.  No arrangements for the funeral have been made so far.  Deceased leaves beside her sorrow-stricken parents these little brothers:  Leroy, Charles, and David Wilcox.
