Mr. Hubert Glascock was found dead from electrocution in the Tallulah High School basement early Tuesday morning. Reported missing from his home all night, Sheriff C. E. Hester began an investigation that led to the body.

Death struck between the hour of 4 and 5 p.m., as the school janitor was last seen Monday evening around four by a fellow worker. Glascock was at work in the basement when the accident occurred.

Glascock was a popular, well-liked janitor. He was always kind and considerate to all school students. Many young hearts were dented from the tragedy, as he had been employed at the parish school for 10 years and possessed many friends.

A native of Tickfaw, La., he had been living in Tallulah for about 15 years.

He leaves his wife and four children, Geraldine, Winston, Patsy and Larry of Tallulah; a brother, Robert Lee Glascock, and a sister, Mrs. Ludie Mae McAdams, both of Sondheimer.

Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 at the Delhi Cemetery. The Rev. J. Daniel Gilliam officiated with Crothers Funeral Home in charge of arrangements.

Pallbearers were Pete Seymour, Albert Fondren, Burton Sevier, Jim Williamson, G. S. Langford and H. D. Morton.
