Barham Fred Barham died Thursday of last week after a brief illness with appendicitis. Specialists from Dallas came for an operation, but after consulting with local physician it was decided that an operation would not save him.

He was a prosperous farmer, a loving husband, patient and kind father, member of the Christian Church. He was comparatively you, being 49 years old, a useful, strong-minded man whose heart went out for the unfortunate and down-trodden. The deceased was an all-round splendid citizen and his place in church and society will be hard to fill, and the excellent record left behind may serve as a guide to others coming on. The funeral services were held at Rose Hill Cemetery, Friday at 2 pm by Elder Crane and a large concourse of friends were present. The services were very solemn and the tribute was very appropriate.
