Death of an Old Citizen
James Parker, one of the old citizens of this place met an untimely death 
Sunday night.  Early in the evening he fell and struck the back of his head on 
the edge of the concrete pavement and died from the effects of the fall about 
2 o'clock Sunday morning.  His skull was fractured quite badly.  James 
Parker was born in England March 15, 1850 and died in Scammon, Kansas November 
11, 1912, aged 62 years 7 months and 26 days.  He came to America with his 
parents at the age of 2 years and for the last 30 years has lived in this 
city.  The funeral was held in the Methodist Church Wednesday afternoon, 
conducted by the pastor, Rev. Borgeson, and the remains were taken to the 
Cherokee cemetery for internment.  The Miner joins the entire community in 
extending to Mrs. Parker and her children their heartfelt sympathy in their 
dark hour of sorrow.
