Tuck DAVIS, WILFORD - Died in Denver, Colorado, June 17, 1915, of tuberculosis. He had sought health in many places; the last few years spent at Adams Memorial Home in Denver. He contributed much to magazines and newspapers, the speech he wrote which was read in congress by a member of Kansas, and entered on the Congressional Record, was a marvel in the subject and resulted in much good. His body was accompanied from Denver by his sisters, Misses Lottie and Ruby, and were met at Ft. Worth by his brothers, Henry and Sherwood. He also has beloved sisters Misses Effie and Bessie, and Mrs, Austin of Vicksburg, Miss., and Mrs. Joe Lowe of Cumby. It was his desire to be laid to rest in his boy- hood home beside his mother. Burial in Cumby cemetery. (Cumby Rustler, June 25, 1915)
