approximate age: 52 years
father from TN; mother from AR
names of parents not reported on death certificate

Place of Death: Abilene State Hospital
Cause of Death: Epileptic convulsion
Treated at hospital from Feb. 6, 1925 until death
Length of residence in city or town where death occurred: 3 yrs, 11 mos, 12 days. This does not necessarily mean he was in this hospital all this time; however, it could very well indicate he was a resident of this hospital for that length of time until his death.

Lots of people in this cemetery died from epileptic convulsion/epilepsy. I do not know if this is called something else today and that it was not epilepsy; however, the term was used frequently in this era, and especially by the doctors in this area of Taylor County.
