SUCCUMBS TO SEVERE ATTACK
OF PNEUMONIA.
Weakened by an attack of rheumatism, from which he suffered for some time, George H. Plowman, well known lawyer of Dallas, and a resident of the city for nearly forty years, was unable to stand a severe attack of pneumonia, which developed only last Saturday a week ago, and yesterday afternoon, at 5 o'clock, he quietly passed away at the family home on San Jacinto street. To add to the sadness of the death, Mrs. Plowman is also ill with an attack of pneumonia. It was stated last night, however, that she was bearing up well under the shock, and as her illness was not so aggravated, it is not believed that her condition is serious.

Interment will be made in the Greenwood cemetery. Active pallbearers will be O. C. Youngblood, Judge W. J. J. Smith, Judge J. C. Muse, John Leachman, John W. Young and D. Frank Carden.
