Notes

The Deport Time, (Deport, Texas), Friday, October 31, 1924: Card of Thanks. Words cannot convey to our friends our deep appreciation of their ministrations of kindness and love during the short illness and the following death of our husband and father. For the efforts of Dr. Grant to relieve suffering, the sympathetic words of comfort and consolation and the beautiful floral offerings we are indeed grateful; they helped to make lighter the heavy burden. May the Heavenly Father bless and reward each of you is our prayer. Mrs. J. H. Temple and Children."
