James Milton Hardesty
May 1926 ~ July 28, 1928


James Milton Hardesty, age 22 months, son of Mr & Mrs Clay Hardesty, died Saturday, July 28, following an illness of two weeks, during which time the little fellow suffered intensely.

He was a bright lovable ;itt;e fellow and had endeared himself in the hearts of the family and neighbors. With smiles and a happy disposition he had made friends of all with whom he came in contact

Despite all that loving care and medical skill could do, little James Milton succombed to the ravages of disease, and his spirit took it's flight to the Father's mansion to dwell with the myriad of angelic spirits where disease and suffering is unknown.

Funeral services were held at the home Sunday, conducted by Rev W. E. Humphreys.
