| Notes LAMAR COUNTY INQUESTS, May 2, 1916 to December 1938, Transcribed by Mary Claunch Lane: Lamar County Texas, Precinct One, Justice of the Peace, Inquest Record Book Number 1, Record 1; Deceased- J. E. Brown. Lived on College Street in City of Paris. Died May 2, 1916 at his home, College Street Paris, Texas. Date of Inquest- May 2, 1916. Ronny Brown, a brother, and a son of J. E. Brown. Finding By The Justice. On May the 2, 1916 Mr. Ronny Brown came to my house at 6:15 a.m. Requesting me to go to the home of J. E. Brown a brother of J. E. Brown. Stating that the said J. E. Brown had just been found dead in bed. When I arrived some 10 or 15 minutes later, I found the said J. E. Brown dead and was laying in bed on right side. Cold and stiff as he had been dead for several hours when his wife that was sleeping in same bed woke, she laid her hand on her husband to rouse him and discovered he was dead after examining body of deceased. I waited till the undertaker came and we dressed him. There was no marks in any way of violence and we felt sure that Appoplexy was the cause of death as veins seemed to be dark and full of blood. I am fully certain that death was caused from failure of the heart to perform it part necessary to sustain life. W. A. Hobbs Justice of the Peace, Pr. 1 Lamar County, Texas.
