Sylvester McAdoo Dead
Last Friday evening this community received a severe shock when about 5 p.m. the Grim Reaper took from our midst the soul of Silvester McAdoo, just in the prime of life, practically physically perfect, a young cowboy who was the master of wild horses and one of the best among ranch hands, a willing worker whose services were always in demand. Though he was only in bed for a few days, typhoid fever had him in its clutches for more than a month, but he kept on working thinking it was not serious. He was employed on the University range by O. G. Young. About a week ago he came to town for medical treatment, but it was too late. He was a good boy with many friends who grieve with his bereaved father and family. Funeral services were conducted at the Methodist church by the pastor Rev. F. B. Faust, this evening at 3 o'clock and his body was tenderly laid to rest in the Van Horn Cemetery. His father J W. McAdoo, his brother Vivian and sister Ona were with him to give him the best of care from the time he was confined to his bed. His brother Gordon arrived before he passed away. His sister Mrs. W. L. Head, accompanied by her husband, arrived today noon from El Paso
