Warren Hudspeth was born and raised in Arkansas, died in Tulsa, Oklahoma, November 10, 1926. Uncle Warren, as he was familiary called, had spent most of his life in Carroll County and was for several years engaged in the lumber business in the southern part of the county, but for the past few years had been making his home, most of the time, with his son, Will, in Bristow, Oklahoma. He was an ex-Confederate soldier, serving with the 3rd Arkansas Division, Company I under General Shelby.

Uncle Warren always appeared in good spirits and was unusually healthy for a man of 82 years, he always had a good word for everyone, and as we think how he looked when we last saw him starting on his last journey, we are reminded that this life is but a stepping stone to the Great Beyond, and that while we are always wondering, we never know who will be the next to be called to answer the summons from Him 'who doeth all things well.'

The body was prepared for burial by the Robert McBirney Undertaking Company of Tulsa, Oklahoma, who have the sincere thanks of the family for the able and accommodating manner in which they conducted the affair, and the kind treatment extended to the bereaved son and grandson, who were caught in trouble away from home and among strangers.

Mr. Hudspeth leaves six children to mourn their loss, Mrs. F.M. Gage, Mrs. W.O. Wade and Mrs. Abe Wilson of Metalton, Ark.; Mrs. Ida Miller and Will Hudspeth of Bristow, Oklahoma, Mrs. J.D. Meskimen of Rogers, Ark; also two brothers, Jerry and Jim Hudspeth who live in the west; one sister, Mrs. Lucy Daniels of Metalton, besides a number of grandchildren and other relatives and friends.

Funeral services, conducted by Rev. T.R. Keen, were held November 12, and the remains laid to rest in the Gobbler Cemetery, near Metalton. {tth}

Last Sunday night near the hour of 12 o’clock death claimed Mrs Emily Wilson, who has been ill for more than four months at the home of her son, Sheriff W. A. Wilson. Mrs Wilson was a native of Roane County, Tennessee, her girlhood days being spent at Kingston, County seat of Roane County. In 1871 she moved with her husband to Missouri where they resided two years and then moved to Izard County locating at or near Franklin where her husband worked for a number of years at the blacksmith trade. After his death which occurred some 28 years ago, Mrs Wilson made her home with her children and when visiting her daughter, Mrs S. F. Simpson in the state of Washington last Spring she contracted a cold which ultimately resulted her death. Mrs Wilson was 73 years old; was a member of the Methodist Church. The consistent Christian demeanor maintained by Mrs Wilson at all times and under all circumstances, together with her desire to assist anyone in sickness or other afflictions won for her a warm place in the hearts of all whom she met and those with whom she was most intimately acquainted will sincerely mourn her departure. She is survived by eight children - three boys and five girls, Mrs S. F. Simpson of Soap Lake, Washington; Mrs Pearl Sowder of Morse, Oklahoma; Mrs B. F. Bishop, of LaCrosse; Mrs Doll Batterton and Mrs S. F. Billingsley of Franklin. The boys are, Sam and James Wilson of Okemah, Oklahoma and W. A. Wilson of this place.
