Died.  News reached here last Sunday of the death of Mrs. John A. Campbell
of Ector, Texas, who died Saturday morning about 4 o'clock.  Mrs. Campbell

mother about three weeks ago and was with her mother when the end came. 
The deceased was a native of Texas and lived all her life in Fannin
county.  She was a consistent member of the Methodist church and death to
her was a passing from life on earth to peaceful rest and reward in the
home beyond the grave.  She is survived by her husband and four daughters,

is expected to return to Erick the latter part of this week.  The
