A lightly edited
partial transcription of the Local Interest column on page 8 of the 7 Nov 1918 Simcoe Reformer newspaper.
Ben Cooper, who was
discharged from the Emergency Hospital some days ago as practically
cured after a severe attack of influenza, had a relapse, and was
again admitted to the hospital on Tuesday evening.
Nothing could be done for
him, however, and death ensued at four o'clock yesterday morning.
Deceased was 30 years of age
and the son of John Cooper.
