OBITUARY

Elbert E. Hawley

The many friends and classmates of Mr. Elbert E. Hawley will be shocked to
hear of his sudden death, which occurred July 8 at Chicago. Nothing of the
immediate cause of his death is known. His brother, Homer F. Hawley, was in
this city transacting business on Tuesday when he was summoned to his home
in Argyle. Later a dispatch was received saying that his brother had passed
away.

The deceased was a well known commission man who had many friends, and
customers in this vicinity. He was possessed of rare gifts and a charming
personality. He had risen rapidly and a successful career had been
prophesied for him by those who knew him best.

He leaves a wife, his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Hawley of
Argyle, and a sister and two brothers. The funeral occurred Thursday at 2
o'clock from the Hawley home.
