Obituary

Death at noon Thursday called Charles W. Houghton Jr, small son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Houghton, the former district manager of the Mutual Life Insurance company of New York, following an illness of but a few days. Death occurred at the family home on Chico Creek road. Deceased was born September 17, 1915, being six years old at the time of death. He is survied by his parents and two brothers, Dan and Ross Houghton. Funeral services will be held at the home Friday morning at 10 o'clock, the arrangements being made by Fetters & Williams. Interment will be made in Chico cemetery.
Obit from a second newspaper [?]:

A telegram received Thursday night from Chico brought the sad news of the sudden death from infantile paralysis of Junior, second son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Houghton, aged six years, one month and two days. Mrs. Houghton will be remembered [strange turn of phrase -- she lived until 1977] as Miss Grace Ross, niece of Mr. and Mrs. D. F. Johnson, and a sister of Mrs. Arthur Ross and Mrs. Elizabeth Cook. Junior was an unusual bright child, being of a most affectionate and lovable nature.⁶
