JUDGE ]. D. THOMAS DEAD.

Mr.. j. w. Coulter, of this city, re-
ceived a letter this morning convey
ing the sad news of the death of Judge
]. ID. Thomas at his home in Oak Cliff
at 4 O'Clock yesterday morning. Judge
Thomas was for many years a leading
citizen as we'll as leading attorney
of Bryan, and had many friends here
who regret to learn of his death.
He was strictly a sef-made man,
coming to this county in the early
days and settling at Millican. He first
engaged in farming and later taught
school for several years. All the time
he was studying law and when finally
ready to enter the practice he was
thoroughly equipped for the great pro-
fession he had chosen.
He later came to Bryan, enjoyed a
fine practice here for many years. and
during the time acquired a large prop
erty. He lived with his family a mile
south of town, and his old home-the
old red brick house just this side of
the fair grounds-is still standing.
He moved from here to Oak Cliff
about twenty years ago and had made
that his home since. He was about
eighty years of age, member of the
Methodist church and Christian gen.
tleman.
