CROCKETT, EDWARD
(28 Nov 1918, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
EDWARD CROCKETT DIES.
Edward Crockett, who has been ill for several years from tubercolosis
(sic) was found dead at his home Friday morning by D. H. Brady.
Mr. Crockett had lived alone for sometime, and when Mr. Brady noticed that
the front door was open, which was something unusual, he went over to
investigate.  Mr. Crockett had moved his rocking chair to the door and
seemingly fell from it when having a hemorrhage, and death must have
resulted immediately.
George Grubitz was called to take charge of the body and arranged for
funeral services which were held Sunday afternoon at Fairlawn Cemetery.
Deceased man was aged 54 years, 8 months and 17 days.  He is survived by
two daughters, Mrs. Arthur Miller and Mrs. W. A. Haddock.
