(27 Oct 1927, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
Jabal J. Bandy was born in Oakland, Edgar County, Illinois, November 15,
1581 (sic), and died October 19, 1927, age 75 years, 11 months and 4 days.
 Upon leaving Illinois in 1869 he came to Kansas, where he was married in
1872 to Sabrina Bush.  He is survived by his aged wife and six children,
all of whom were present except one daughter, Mrs. S. S. Yoder of
Delmarte, Colorado.  Brother Bandy obeyed the gospel at the age of 44
years and had been active in church work until recent ill health rendered
active service impossible.  He has always lived above reproach, clean in
life; chaste in language, reverent and Godly in demeanor.  He was among
the pioneers of this country, settling on a homestead near Carmargo in
1900, where he continued to live until 1913.  For several years he has
resided at Hot Springs, Arkansas.  About one month ago he and his wife
came to Elk City to spend the winter with his daughter, Mrs. W. W. Hughes
intending to visit his son and daughter in Gage and spend the summer with
a daughter in Colorado.  He leaves to mourn his going his wife, six
children and several grandchildren.
