Sudden Death of L. C. (Cullus) Hendrix
    L. C. (Cullus) Hendrix died suddenly Thursday morning, September
26, 1929, at his home in Campbell, where he had resided for about
forty years.  He had been in bad health for some time and Mrs.
Hendrix left the house temporarily to do some shopping downtown,
returning a few minutes later to find that the death angel had
visited the home and removed the head of the family.
    Deceased was fifty-eight years of age and had resided in Campbell
since the age of seventeen.  The elder Hendrix moved with his family
from East Texas to Campbell, being a crippled Confederate veteran and
a much esteemed citizen during his life.  Cullus served many years as
section foreman, first in that capacity for the Katy and later for the
L. R. & N.  At one time, her served as Justice of the Peace in the
Campbell precinct, but had no fondness for official duties and
returned to section work, ending a long and busy career as such.
Addition to his widow, he is survived by two children, Mrs. Roy Pate
of Fort Worth and Mrs. J. O. Reddell of Gainesville.  He is also
survived by four sisters, Mrs. J. F. Hales of Greenville, Mrs.
Welcome Richards of Ardmore, Oklahoma, Mrs. Ruth Cochran of Wilson,
Oklahoma, and Mrs. Fannie Fowler of Canton, formerly of Greenville.
One brother also survives, Elbert Hendrix of Fort Worth.
    Funeral services were held Friday afternoon, September 27, 1929,
in Campbell, followed by burial in Brigham Cemetery.
