AYRES, MONGER Name of Newspaper is Daily Morning Sun, Springfield, OH on Saturday, May 7, 1904

Little Howard AYRES, was run over by a wagon which was loaded with stone, last Wednesday, near Dialton, Ohio, died almost instantly.

The boy was a nephew of Mrs. Ed MONGER of Tremont, who with her daughter and son Ollie, and Harry MONGER, attended the funeral last Friday. It was a sad scene. The mother was unable to follow the remains to the grave, and one of the saddest scenes followed when the cortege started to the cemetery. The child was remarkably smart for his age.
