Thinking probably the noble and
generous people OF Amarillo would
like 20 know something OF tho life
and character OF the little boy so
ruthleRsly murdered In your town, I
am writing this.
Foster Earl Dookray was born DC
tober 10, 1888 near johnson city,
Texas, Ills mother was only oIgh.
teen years old az his birth. Earle
was bright jolly baby and every
mother has experienced the same
pleasure his mother found In plan
ming for his future. She was imagi'
native and found great pleasure In
looking TO his future.
He early displayed great nerve, as
when quite young he had both an
arm and log broken.
also was impressed with his in
dustry. Al five and six years old be
cut and carried in the house the lar
ger portion OF the fire wood. SO
clever and ready to run pyramids for
mamma that It was pleasure 10 call
him.
Through the autumn OF 1898 he
almost alone gathered TOUR bales OF
cotton. often taking his sack and
picking all evening alone.
AS pupil in school he was bright
and studious. He attended school
last winter and brought home excel
lent reports from the 10th grade,
Earl rocitod poetry and recitations in
a very correct and pleasing manner,
and often when quite young contrlbu-
ted a great deal of pleasure to MS
friends.
Earles mother died August 10,
1908. Since that time he lived prin-
elpally with his mothers parents.
He was q member OF the Johnson
City Baptist church.
lie left his grandfather Green last
spring going to III Paso TO become a
railroad man. His intentions were to
become an engineer or a master me-
ohanlc IN tho machine shops. He
was quite small and lacked a few
months OF being eighteen years old,
for which reason he failed to bo en-
ployed by tho manager OF the shops. |
lilo was for time employed by q |
grocery merchant In vi Paso.
do not know how no came to
Amarillo, neither do know the peo'
pic OF Amarillo, but his people feel
very grateful TO you for your noble
interest and generosity.
Whatever the circumstances OF his
death we're, he was worthy of your
sympathy. We have great hopes OF
him In heaven.
Whoever murdered him cannot go
even though your gen
crous reward fails, but through the
endless ages Of eternity shall be con-
demned TO witness that most diaboli'
cal deed,
May heaven bless the good and
generous people Of Amarillo and may
God In his mercy preserve every par
snt from so great bereavement. is
The prayer of his grandparents. Our
hearts are broken; We are almost
crushed by the awful calamity,
