Morrell Bergen Dies Suddenly While Camping

Petaluma Argus -
Morrell Bergen, the little 5 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. C.B. Bergen of San Rafael who were on a camping trip, died Monday morning at the camp at the Fairground in this city. The little fellow had been ailing for some time and the parents started on a camping trip in the hopes that the child would recover. He became much worse Monday morning and died shortly after.

Morrell Bergen was a native of San Rafael and 5 years old. The parents are nearly heartbroken over the child's death.

The remains of the little one were shipped to San Rafael Monday afternoon on the 4:25 train. The funeral will be held Tuesday.
