HAWKINS, T. A.
(21 Mar 1929, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
T. A. Hawkins of Brea, Nebraska, died Saturday, March 16, on the train as
he was coming from Hobart to Elk City to visit with his brother, F. W.
Hawkins and family here.
Physicians say that heart trouble was the cause of his death.  He had
delivered two car loads of potatoes at Hobart and was enroute to Elk City
Saturday morning when he died suddenly.  The body was shipped to Nebraska
when the son Donald Hawkins arrived in Clinton Monday to attend to funeral
directions.
Mr. Hawkins filed on a homestead in Bessie years ago and has corresponded
with the M System, Perry and Leeper grocers, in Elk City in regard to
selling potatoes.
Relatives and friends who went to see the corpse Sunday at Clinton, were
Ira Carver, Mr. and Mrs. Kyle Kidd, Mrs. Frank Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Ben
Sylvester of Hydro, Mr. and Mrs. O. J. Robinson and children of Canute,
Beryl White, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hawkins and daughter Opal, Leslie Hawkins
and Mr. Spurgeon.
The deceased leaves a wife and one son to survive him.
