(The obituary was cut out of a paper. All I can read is Star-Progress, 
Berryville, Arkansas, November.   I don't know what year and it is 
somewhere around the 10th of November because of an article on the back.

(This would have been in 1939 according to his tombstone in Berryville 
Memorial Cem. Phillip Snow)
