BROWN, OTTIS
(1 Oct 1914, The Sayre Standard, Sayre, Beckham Co, OK):
Death of Ottis Brown.  Ottis Brown died Wednesday morning at 11:00 o'clock
from the effects of an injury he sustained last Thursday afternoon while
lifting a sack of grain into a bin at his feed mill in this city.  The
deceased was the son of Mr. and Mrs. S. P. Brown, who reside south of
Sayre.  At the time of his injury, which was internal, it was not thought
to be serious, but blood poisoning resulted and despite his heroic
determination to live and the skill of physicians, death came to relieve
him of his sufferings.  He leaves a wife and one infant child.  The
sympathy of our entire community go out to the bereaved ones in their
sorrow and distress.  The funeral services will be held at the Methodist
church this afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev. W. L. Anderson officiating.
