DEATH OF BROTHER

shock as it was not known he was ill.  He suffered from locked bowels
dying on the operating table.
The funeral was held on Saturday afternoon in the Methodist Church at

council for six years.  He was manager of the Pittsburg Mortgage Co., at
Woodward.
J. Luther Taylor, Pittsburg, Kan., president of the Pittsburg Mortgage
Co., also an old friend of the family arrived here Thursday and
accompanied Mr. and Mrs. W. S. White to Woodward, and remained there until
after the funeral services.  Another brother, John E. White, of Chickasha
was also present, and a sister Miss Julia White, of Pittsburg, Kansas.
