THE JUNCTION EAGLE; Junction, Texas, April 16, 1920
Mr. John L. Sparkman who for a year and a half had been camped on the Cedar Road near town died April 13th, at 2:30 p.m. He was buried in the South Llano Cemetery, Rev. S. F. Marsh conducting brief services.
Mr. Sparkman had suffered a number of years from tuberculosis. He had also suffered injuries incurred while an engineer on the T. P. R'y. During his stay in our community he maintained a neat appearance and when he appeared in public he tried to exercise proper precaution against spreading the disease. The final blow of his dread enemy was terrible, prostrating and rendering him unconscious most of the time for a number of days before his death.
The Commissioner's Court furnished him a constant attendant for more than a week. A few friends were frequently at his bedside and a sister, Mrs. Dawkins of Fort Worth, was here a few days.
Mr. Sparkman was a member of the local Baptist church.
A number of years ago a wife and baby preceded him to the better land.
He was forty-five years old.
The cemetery records for the Junction Cemetery list him as buried in their cemetery.
