DEATH OF THURMAN FOSTER

   The home of Mr. And Mrs. J. F. Foster, was made very sad Tuesday night, when the 
death angle entered and claimed their youngest son Thurman.

   He was suffering from a fall from a tree last Saturday, and physicians advised 
an operation, and he was taken to Texarkana, late Monday night, but after examination 
it was found he could not undergo the operation and gradually grew weaker.  Loving 
hands administered to his sufferings he lingered until 4 oclock Thursday afternoon, 
when God, who doeth all things well, and who said “Suffer little children to come unto 
Me” called Thurman to dwell with Him.

   Thurman was just 12 years of age and was loved by all for his kind and sweet
disposition.  Besides the heartbroken parents he leaves three brothers and six sisters 
to mourn his going away.

   Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at the Methodist church conducted 
by Rev. Burnett, interment following in the city cemetery.
