Tragedy Strikes La Grande as Infant Dies After Pill Ingestion
Cordia Tenley Holbrook aged under four, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm Holbrook, died after chewing pink pills given by a physician in Oklahoma. The pills, used as a mild purgative, caused convulsions and she died before a doctor arrived. Born November 17, 1905 in Tecumseh Oklahoma, she had just moved with her family to La Grande a week earlier. Burial followed at God Fellows Cemetery after a Baptist church funeral led by Pastor W. H. Gibson.
