Boze Frances N 430903 p1
Paralysis Proves Fatal to Frances Boze; Patterson's. first case of infantile paralysis in the present national outbreak proved
fatal Monday afternoon as Frances Nanette Boze passed away at a San Francisco hospital where she had been taken for
treatment.  Stricken in the throat, her case was virtually hopeless from the first developments. Her twin brother, Frank,
11, and sister Evelyn, 12, are also patients in the same hospital with definitely diagnosed cases of the same malady, but
their attacks are much milder. Private services for Frances were held in San Francisco Tuesday afternoon with interment
in Holy Cross Cemetery. She was the foster daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Manuel Silva, who are guardians of the three
named and also a fourth, Edward, aged 13. Three other girls complete the family -- 17, 9, and 7 years of age respectively.
They are the children of Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Boze of San Francisco.  Boze is now at sea in the Merchant Marine.
As far as any spread of the disease in the community is concerned, there are no further developments, and it, is hoped that
the infection has been confined to the one family, which, it is believed, picked it up while on vacation at the Coast.
