OBITUARY: Infant Dubose, 22 Jan 1888 - Smith County, TX Submitted by Vicki Betts 1 January 2003 Copyright.

He was the only son of Rev. H. M. DuBose, pastor of the Methodist Church at Tyler, Texas. He was about twenty-one months old. He was not the idol of his fond parents, but he was sunshine in their Christian home. He was beautiful in form and features; intellectually, he was bright for a child of his age. I feared the death of her darling boy would break the tender heart of the fond mother, (she is feeble in health), but thank our Father in heaven that He hath given the fond parents the spirit of resignation that they can say: "the Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away, blessed be the name of the Lord."
