Death of Mrs. Patterson
Many hearts were made sad Wednesday morning when word was received here
that Mrs. Essie Patterson had passed away during the night at the Tisdale
Hospital at Elk City.  She had been ill for several months and underwent
an operation about four weeks ago.  Her home was at Shamrock, but she had
been here for the past two months in the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
V. M. Barr.  She was of a cheerful disposition, spreading smiles of
sunshine wherever she went.  She was born at Elmer, Oklahoma, moving here
with her parents while only a child.  She was converted to the Methodist
church at the age of 14.  Death claimed her Tuesday night at the age of 23
years.  She leaves to mourn her going, a husband and one son, a father and
mother, two brothers and three sisters.
Funeral services were conducted by Rev. C. C. Williamson assisted by Harry
Medford.  Interment was made in the Carter cemetery.
