Randolph C. Crowson

Citizen of Tenth Ward Died at Winnfield Friday

Friday morning, Dec., 18, 1903, at 8:15 o'clock, R. C. Crowson, a citizen of
the Tenth Ward of Winn Parish, died after an illness lasting about one week. 
He attended the barbecue here on Dec. 10, and took sick that day with measles. 
He stopped at the residence of R. C. Jones, where he was cared for and was
attended by Dr. J. J. Peters.  After the measles had about run its course,
pneumonia developed from which he died.

He was a splendid citizen and a successful farmer.  He leaves a wife and
family of children.  He was about 40 years of age at the time of his death. 
His death is a great loss not only to his family, but to the parish and the
community in which he lived.
