Herbert Breeze, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Breeze of Carter, died at the home of his parents on Friday afternoon of last week after a prolonged illness of many months. He was 23 years of age when he passed away. During his long spell of sickness his parents did everything in their power to check the disease with which he was afflicted. Different physicians treated him and although at times he would seem to be getting better such improvement was only temporary. This spring his folks went with him on two different trips to Mineral Wells, Texas, where he was treated for a long time and again it was thought that he was improving but it did not last. Herbert was a fine young man and the people of Carter and surrounding country were hoping to the end that his condition would change for the better and that he would gain back his normal health. He left to mourn his passing away his parents and several brothers and sisters and other relatives. One of his brothers, Hubert, was a twin brother. The funeral services were held at the Carter Holiness Church on Saturday afternoon, Rev. J. E. Osborn of Quanah, Texas, being in charge of same. A very large crowd of friends and relatives were present at the funeral and at the Carter cemetery where the remains were laid to rest. We join with the people of Carter and surrounding country in extending our sympathy to the family and other relatives in the passing away of their loved one. Card of Thanks. We wish to express our sincere thanks. We assure one and all that the many acts of kindness and help rendered will ever be remembered by us. J. M. Breeze and family. Hubert Breeze and family.
