Kenneth; the two-months-old infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Ross Koontz, was found dead in bed on Wednesday morning.  Mr. and Mrs. Koontz report that the baby was all right when they retired and during the night, and its sudden death is a great shock to the parents.  This was the only child and friends extend heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved parents.  Funeral services were held from the Franklin church at 2:30 p. m. Thursday.  Burial at Franklin cemetery.
