               Death Claims Andrew Allsup On June 24th

          Funeral services are held at Wooten Cemetery Friday

 In the passing of A. H. Allsup on South Llano Thursday, June 24, Kimble County
has lost another one of her real pioneer citizens.  He had been ill for some time
and for several days was critically ill.  Everything was done for him that loving
hands could do, but he was relieved of his suffering last Thursday.  The body was
buried in the Wooten cemetery Friday, June 25, Elder Walter W. Leamons officiating.
 Andrew Henry Allsup was born near Springfield, Missouri, November 12, 1860, being
76 years, 6 months and 12 days old at the time of his death.  He moved to Texas
early in life and was married to Miss Maggie Vest at Valley Springs in Llano county,
July 26, 1894.  To this union were born ten children, two of whom preceded their 
father.  He is survived by his wife, and the following children.
 Mrs. I. E. Farris, Mrs. Matt Burt, Mrs. Bill Cunningham, Britt Allsup, Boone Allsup,
Tom Allsup, Robert Allsup, and Columbus Allsup, all of Junction.  He is also survived
by one sister of San Angelo and other relatives.  He has been engaged in ranching
since coming to Kimble county in 1902.
 Early in life he united with the Church of Christ and remained a member until his death.
 A large crowd was present at the funeral and the floral offering was beautiful.
