El Reno News, Friday, June 16, 1899
Died:
On Monday, May 15, of inflammation of stomach, Warner Reid, son of Mr. and 
Mrs. Jeff Reid, formerly of Marietta, Ohio, aged 16 years and seven months.

Although we are aware of the fact that death in its unrelenting course, will 
sooner or later call on us all, we are startled at the sacrifice it sometimes 
demands.  This son was the center of a father's affection, the pride of a 
mother's heart, and a kind and loving brother.

The angel of death has entered here, 
and did not leave alone;
He took with him Warner, to
his final resting home.

NO more is heard the echo
of his footsteps in the hall
No more the merry laugh and shout
of welcoming to all.

But now he walks the streets of gold
arrayed in spotless white
Wearing upon his brow
the crown of glory bright.

Mrs. Mary E. Devine.
El Reno, Okla, May 20, 1899

Additional Comments:

Jefferson Reed and Martha E. Smith.
