Captain S.E. Eastin

The town was saddened, but not surprised at the announcement of the death of Captain S.W. Eastin Thursday. 
Captain Eastin came to Jacksboro soon after the close of the Civil War, from Missouri, his native State, and had remained a citizen of Jacksboro continuously since that time. In years gone by he was one of the prominent business men, and did much for the upbuilding of Jacksboro in many ways.

He had been a consistent member of the Methodist church for a number of years, having been converted at the revival meeting held in Jacksboro by Abe Mulkey, at which time he immediately joined the church of his choice. He leaves two daughters, Mrs. N.E. Atkinson and Mrs. J.A. Rickles, his wife having died a few years ago. [His wife was the daughter of
Major Henderson Horton]
