Beckham County, OK - Obits: Hugh Sanford Dodson, 1926 10 Jan 2008 Submitted by: delma25@pldi.net (Delma Tindell) ************************************************ Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ************************************************ DODSON, HUGH SANFORD (28 Oct 1926, Sayre Headlight, Sayre, Beckham Co, OK): Sunday morning a telegram brought the information of the death of Hugh Dodson, at Norman. It seems that about a week previous Mr. Dodson had scratched his hand upon a rusty nail, and blood poisoning set in spreading very rapidly and causing his death as mentioned. The body was brought to this city on Monday afternoon, and funeral services held at Dempsey, Tuesday. Mr. Dodson was a well known pioneer resident of the Dempsey section. A few years ago he moved his family to this city, residing on Fourth street, that his children might have the advantage of our schools. Two years since the family moved to Norman, that the children might have the advantages of the Oklahoma University, at that place. Mr. Dodson was well known throughout this section, and a man very highly esteemed, and a host of friends will extend their sympathy to the bereaved family. (Other notes): Mrs. Fred Dodson, of Edmond, was called to Sayre on Monday to attend the funeral of her uncle, the late Hugh Dodson. --------------------------------------------------------- Return to Beckham County Archives: http://www.usgwarchives.net/ok/beckham/beckham.htm
