MUSIC, ARCHABALD GOEBEL
(18 Dec 1919, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
DEATH OF A. G. MUSIC
A. G. Music died at his home, Tuesday, December 16th, with pneumonia, aged
78 years.  Funeral services were held at Ural cemetery yesterday,
conducted by Rev. Bowles and Masonic Order.  Grubitz & Son had charge of
the interment.
(1 Jan 1920, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
A. G. Music was born in Washington Co., Virginia, about the year of 1841. 
When a small boy he moved with his parents to Kentucky.  At about eighteen
years of age he became a member of the Church of Christ and afterwards
served as deacon for many years.  I have known him for more than forty
years.  He was a man whose veracity was never questioned.  He was loved
and honored by all who knew him.
He belonged to the Masonic order and I herewith give the following:
Zebulon Lodge No. 273 F. & A. M., Prestonburg, Ky.
To whom it may concern: - This is to certify that Brother Arch Goble Music
was made and entered apprentice, January 4th, 1892, and passed to the
Fellow Craft degree, February 1892; and was raised to the Sublime degree
of Master Mason, March 7th, 1892 and is now a Master Mason in good
standing in the Zebulon Lodge No. 273 F. & A. M., in the Grand
Jurisdiction of Kentucky.  James M. Morrell, Master, F. H. Morrell,
Secretary.
This good man passed from labor to reward or as the apostle, Paul would
express it, "He fell asleep on December 17th (sic), 12:45 o'clock a.m. 
His body was laid to rest in the Ural cemetery.  Brother Carmen conducted
the funeral services on behalf of the church.  He gave one of the most
sublime talks I have ever heard after which the Masons performed their
ceremony.
I am requested by the family to express their grateful thanks to all who
assisted them in their sad bereavement.
May the dear Lord comfort the desolate wife who stood by him so nobly
through life and so faithfully in death.  To all the loved ones he has
left behind, let me say with Paul, Sorrow not as others who have no hope
"for those that sleep in Jesus will God bring with him."  S. J. Short
