He is survived by his wife, two sons, Thomas 5, Will 3 and one daughter, Frances 8. Two brothers, R. E. Flood of Fort Worth and Fred Flood of Milford, also survive.
Born in Harris, Ark., Dec. 21, 1862, Flood spent his early childhood there. At an early age he engaged in the shoe business and followed that line until his death. He married Miss Lillian Sanders of Paris, Texas.
Funeral services will be conducted from the family residence at 2 o'clock Friday by Rev. John A. Rice, pastor of the First Methodist church. Burial will follow in Greenwood cemetery.
All the shoe stores in the city will close Friday afternoon in order that the employes may attend the funeral. The active pallbearers will be P. T. Maben, L. E. Langston, H. Q. Humphries, J. T. Taylor, H. T. Compton and R. G. Worrell.
