SAVAGE, EUGENE
(31 Jul 1907, Wednesday , Elk City Record, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
Eugene T. Savage, son of John and Martha Savage, was born in Camel County,
Kentucky, May 14, 1861.  His parents moved to Clark County, Missouri, when
he was a small boy, where he was raised and where he was married to Miss
Eva M. Hiatt in 1886.  To this union a son was born.  He moved to Oklahoma
in 1899, where he has since lived until death called him home on the
beautiful Sabbath morning of July 28, 1907.  He was well known in this and
surrounding communities and leaves many friends who sympathize with the
family in this, their great bereavement.  Mr. Savage leaves a wife and son
and aged mother, two sisters and four brothers to mourn for him.  May God
be with them.

Death.
The Grim Reaper took over the Divide the soul of Eugene F. (sic) Savage
last Sunday morning.  Most old settlers knew Eugene Savage as one of our
best citizens.  Mr. Savage help(ed) build the Choctaw railroad into Elk,
and afterwards settled on a claim 18 miles north of Elk near Hammon.
He leaves a wife and one son who is in business at Hammons (sic).  He was
raised in Wyaconda, Clark county, Mo., where now lives his mother, sister
and three brothers.
He died of chronic billiousness.  His demise will be mourned by hosts of
friends whose sympathies go out for those loved ones who are left with us.
 Peace to his ashes.
Card of Thanks
We take this means of thanking the many friends who were so kind in
assisting us at the time of the death and burial of our loved one.
Mrs. Eva Savage.
Bernard E. Savage.
(8 Aug 1907, Thursday, Elk City Democrat, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
Again the Union Home Fraternal Association has demonstration (sic) its
reliability, and prompt settlement of its claim by paying Mrs. Eva Savage
of Hammon, Okla., one thousand dollars in full on the policy of E. F.
Savage.  Mr. Savage was a member of Association No. 2, which is largely
made up of members from Custer county and this is their first death. 
Settlement was made in five days after the death.  This is the cheapest
insurance in the world and is fast forging its way to the front in the
insurance world.
