Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Clay received
a telegram Tuesday, Marth Bth, an
nouncing the sudden death of their
son, Rufus P. Clay, at his home in
Okiahoma City, Okl]a. He was only
sick about two hours and died-of
heart failure. He was the oldest son
of Mr. W. P. Clay and was raised
here. He went west several years
ago where he has beén succssful in
business. He was a young man of gen
ial disposition and made many friends
wherever he went. He joined the
Methodist church when he was a
small boy. He was cultured and al
ways carried himself in such a way
as to win the esteem of all he came
in contact with, and was held in very
high esteem in his home town where
he had a flourishing business for
several years.
He leaves a wife and two children
in Oklahoma, his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. W. P. Clay, of this place. Three
brothers, Mr. Weyman Clay, of Tex
as; Messrs. Edgar and Ernest Clay, of
Tampa, Fla., also three sisters, Mrs.
Clay Chamberlain, of Memphis,
Tenn., Mrs. M. E. Price, of Mid
lothfan, Texas, and Mrs. H. H. Dun

friends who sympathize with the

Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Clay wil] leave
the last of this week for Tampa, Fla.,
where they will make their future
home. They have resided here the
greater part of their lives. Mr. Clay
was one of our leading and most suc
cessful farmers until he lost his eye
sight several years ago, since he re
tired from farm life they have lived
here at Macland. We regret that
their health is failing so fast that
they have decided to move to Florida
Where they will be with their boys,
Messrs, Ernest and Edgar Clay. We
regret to lose them as neighbors, but
hope that they may regain their
hea]th and be prosperous ang happy
