(21 Nov 1918, Thursday, Beckham County Democrat, Erick, Beckham Co, OK):
Our city was shocked and grieved Saturday by the announcement that Mrs. A.
D. Morgan had died that morning at 7:30 a.m.  She had been sick some time
ago, partially recovered and took a relapse, and her death came as a
surprise.
Mrs. Morgan was a most excellent, kind Christian lady, beloved by all and
her death is deeply deplored by all.  The entire community join the
bereaved husband and relatives in their grief.
Funeral services were conducted at the Tabernacle at the cemetery at 3
o'clock p.m. and the remains laid to rest in the Erick cemetery.

The noble husband and two sweet children too were unable to follow the
precious beautiful casket.
