Mr.. ]. S. K|RKHAM DEAD
A Pioneer Citizen of Texas Passed
Away at His Home at
Normangee.

Word was received here yesterday
by relatives of the death of Mr.. ]. S.
Kirkham at his home at Normangee.
Mr.. and Mrs. V. W. Foster and other
relatives of this city were at his Deu-
side when the end came.
Mr.. Kirkham was born August a.
1926, either in Texas or Mississippi
and was therefore S5 years, months
and 20 days of age at the time of his
death. His relatives are not quite GER
tain as to his native state, but at any
rate he was Texas pioneer, having
lived here all his life. He was ten
years old when the battle of San
Jacinto was fought, lived in South
Texas at the time and remembered
distinctly the stirring events of those
times. He came to Brazos county long
before the Civil war and lived here
until few years ago when he went
to make his home at Normangee.
He was a very quiet and unassum-
ing man, attending always strictly to
his own affairs, but by his honorable
and upright life enjoyed the highest
confidence and esteem of his neigh
bors and friends
He is survived by his widow and
four children, viz: Mrs. T. H. Darwin
and Mrs. v. w. Foster Of this city,
Mrs. ]. d. Scofield of Dallas and
Spencer Krkham of Madison county.
Besides these he leaves many grand
children and other relatives, all of
whom have the profound sympathy OF
all in their deep affliction.
The remains reached Bryan from
Normangee last night and were taken
to the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. V. w.
Foster, from which place the funeral
services were held this afternoon at
2:30 o'clock with interment following
at Boonville cemetery.
The funeral services were conduct
ed by Revs. Glenn Finn and ]. J..
Tatum.
