HUFF, ROBERT WALTER
(7 Apr 1922, Elk City Southwest Press, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
DIED.  Many of the old settlers of Beckham and Roger Mills counties were
saddened Wednesday morning by the news of the death of Walter Huff, who
passed away Tuesday night in the Cheyenne hospital.  His death was caused
by blood poison, which had set in before an operation.  Most of the people
along the Texas and Washita line that have driven cattle to the point on
the Choctaw road, remember the hospitable pioneer ranch home of Walker and
his mother, Mrs. Huff.  In later years he made his home in Cheyenne where
he has always been greeted by many friends on his frequent visit to that
place since his removal to Herring, Okla.  He was engaged in the
mercantile business at the time of his death.
Mr. Huff was married a year and a half ago to Mrs. Nora Bates Castleberry.
 He leaves a wife and two children, a mother, two brothers, and four
sisters to mourn his untimely death.
A man who has made homes as pleasant in this world as Mr. Huff, make us
fell a grateful spirit for the eternal home.  A Friend.
