W. F. Anderson Passes Away Quite Suddenly.

William Franklin Anderson was born in Missouri January 14, 1872.

His parents came to Texas when he was fifteen years of age and settled near Venus.

Since that time he has been a resident of this state; sixteen years being spent in Dallas county and eleven here in Carrollton.

Mr. Anderson passed away at his home here about 4 o'clock a.m. Monday, July 31, following a stroke of paralysis Sunday evening at 5 o'clock.

After the stroke he seemed to rest easily but did not converse with anyone, his last words coming when he called his wife when he felt the attack Sunday evening.

Some four years ago Mr. Anderson was injured in a car wreck, and in March 1932 he had a stroke of paralysis.

Since that time he has seemingly recovered and was up and around and quite cheerful and assisted at the Highway Garage operated by his son, Jack Anderson, a great deal of the time.

He operated for a long time, the Midway Station on the Denton road where it forks to Coppell and Ft. Worth.

He is the husband of Maggie (Brown) Anderson and the son of John Anderson.

Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon in the First Baptist church, Rev. W. A. Cunningham, former pastor here conducting the service and preaching the sermon.

He was assisted by Rev. W. N. Vernon, pastor of the Methodist church and of which church deceased was a member, and by Rev. Earl Johnston, who read the scripture lesson.

Pall bearers were: Claude James, Ernest James, Jake Gravley, C. L. Chastain, George Nyfeler, and Bud Savell.

Interment was in Union Cemetery east of town.

In 1898 Mr. Anderson and Miss Maggie Brown, an Ellis county girl, were united in marriage in Callahan county.

To this union twelve children were born, four of them dying in infancy.

The wife, Mrs. Maggie Anderson, and the following children survive the husband and father: J. W. (Jack), Walter, Remmer, Martion, Maggie Viola, all fo Carrollton; Mrs. Lissie Clark, Mrs. Opal Tyon, and Mrs. Agnes Scocklley, all of Dallas.

Four brothers and two sisters survive as follows: L. T. Anderson of Tokio, N. L. of Albany, M. L. of Reno, J. H. of Addison, Mrs. Anne Gentry and Mrs. Stella Callahan both of Kaufman.

Mr. Anderson was converted in 1903 and joined the Methodist church.

He was at the time of his death 61 years, 6 months and 16 days old.

The end came so suddenly and so peacefully that the family scarcely realized that he was stricken until he was taken from them by death.

To the sorrowing family goes out the sympathy of the entire community. --- CARD OF THANKS To the neighbors and friends who were so kind and thoughtful and ministered to our wants and extended their sympathy in our hours of grief, we desire to say "God Bless You" for all these kindnesses. Your thoughtfulness shall ever be remembered by us. Mrs. Maggie Anderson J. W. Anderson and all the children.
