Hampton, Freddie 3/28/1892
Printed in the Thursday, March 31, 1892 Pilot
At the Christian church on Wednesday, March 30, Rev. Reed, of Omaha, conducting the services, occurred the funeral of Freddie, son of Mr. and Mrs. Morgan Hampton, aged 10 years, 4 months, 11 days. This was a most remarkable case, in that death was the result of bleeding from the gums. This class of hemorrhage is rare and but few cases of it have been known. The bleeding began about ten days ago while the boy was in apparent good health, and continued with increased flow, and the skill of several physicians was unable to save his life. He died Monday night. His remains were interred in Cuming City cemetery.
