Died at the home in Lawton, Okla., Jan. 16, 1911, Mrs. Fannie Tillman,
wife of Virgil C. Tillman, age 39 years, 5 months, and four days.
The cause of her death was tuberculosis which she fought for nine years.
She leaves four children a loving husband and a host of friends to mourn
her death.
Mr. Tillman's brother,  O. L. Tillman and sister Mrs. G. W. Byrd of this
place were present.  Also his brother I. W. Tillman and family of near
Lawton and his sister Mrs. Lulu St. John of Moneta, Calif.
Funeral services were conducted by Elder Andrew Nelson of Oklahoma City.
Mrs. Tillman was conscious to the very last and died peacefully having put
her trust and hope in the soon coming Savior.  She was a member of the
Seventh Day Adventist Church, and took active part in all the services
until a few weeks before her death.
Mr. and Mrs. Tillman made their home near Bellview for several years but
have since lived in Lawton.
Mrs. St. John will continue to make her home with the bereaved family, and
helping care for the little ones who are left without a mother's care, but
who have also learned the secret of trusting God for all their needs.
Many friends of this place extend sympathy to the sorrowing ones.
