John H. Carter Dies.

John H. Carter died at the Wichita hospital in that city Thursday, August 24, 1899 of Bright's disease. The funeral was held from the Christian church in Augusta, on Friday, Elder R.W. Woodside, pastor of the church, conducting the services. The burial took place in the Kuster cemetery.

John H. Carter was born in Indiana, August 29, 1849, making him fifty years and five days old. He was one of the early settlers of the county coming here with his parents in 1866 and locating west of town.

In 1874, on Nov. 19th, he was married to Miss Ida E. Rundell in Texas, who with four sons survive him, one girl having died.

Deceased was living on a farm near Leon and while he had thought there was some trouble with his head he did not know until less than two weeks before his death that he had Bright's disease and did not suspect the serious nature of his troubles until examined by Dr. Perdue, at Wichita, just eleven days before he died, who told him he was in the last stages of Bright's disease. He was a brother of T.E., L.A., and J.T. Carter who live here and who with the wife and children have the sympathy of a large number of friends.
