Dear one, you have gone on and left the rest.
We must be submissive to the Lord's will, for He knows best.
Oh, how we will always miss you for no one can take your place.
Some day in heaven we expect to see your face.

Tuesday morning, Sept. 6th, we heard the terrible news, the death angels had visited our sister's home and our dear nephew was taken. It was very sad to us. We heard the week before from them and they were well. The Lord needed him and took him to rest in that home he prepared for his children. He was a lover of friends and treated everybody right. All through life he seemed more like a man instead of a little boy. He left many friends here in this world and didn't have any enemies.
We wonder why the Lord called him away when we loved him so dearly. He was taken for some reason. God only knows why. It seems that we can never forget the past while he was here with us because he was always ready and willing to do anything we asked of him. We'll do our best to pass the time awayfor some sweet day we can see him again, even though we didn't get to look upon his face at the funeral on the account of the long journey from Missouri.
He called on the Lord for mercy and ask for a prayer of his mother on his death bed. He died on the way to the hospital with a sweet smile on his face.
His father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. C. V. Works, are christians and trying to raise the little family up right. The family is broken now. He was 14 years of age.
Funeral services were held at Mt. Pleasant, about four miles northeast of Fulton.

For more on little Teldon's death, you can read this post about mad dogs.
It is interesting to note that the September 15th edition of the 1938 Fulton News Beacon also included a front page article indicating that "vaccination of all dogs is required by law" and that every precinct in the county would be visited by Dr. J. T. Barrett for the purpose of administering vaccinations to all dogs over the age of six months, at a price of 50 cents per vaccination.
