COWAN, COWDREY, HICKS, MAYES, MEDLEY, WARE posted by Julie Pool on Thursday, April 1, 1920

Mt. Echo Newspaper, 1 Apr 1920 issue: About three weeks ago Mr Lee HICKS, a prominent merchant at Rush, went to Joplin on business. On his way there, his left eye became affected, but he thought a cinder had blown into it. His left eye became ill for a day or so at Joplin. His eye continued to grow worse after his return. On Tuesday of last week Dr. WARE was called to see him, but his eye continued to get worse. A message was sent to Dr. MAYES, an eye specialist at Little Rock to come at once and he replied that he would be in Yellville Saturday. Mr. HICKS met him here and the doctor diagnosed the case as erysipelas and stated that he had better be taken to a hospital in Little Rock for treatment. He started Sunday, in company with his wife, his son Roscoe, his son-in-lawm Con MEDLEY and Dr. MAYES, but shortly after leaving he began to grow worse and the end came in Cotter. The body was taken off the train and prepared for burial and Monday was brought back to Yellville and taken to the residence of Mr and Mrs. Will COWDREY, where it was taken to the COWAN graveyard and laid to rest by the Woodmen of the World, of which organization he had long been a member. Mr. HICKS leaves a host of friends to mourn his untimely death.

BAKER, MORROW, OTT posted by Gary D Treat on Friday, July 2, 1920

obit Mountain Echo, Yellville, AR, Thursday, 15 Jul 1920, pg 1 Elder C N BAKER, Dies. Uncle Newt BAKER passed out of this life on July the 2nd, at the home of Cleve OTT. Uncle Newt was past his 70th mile post in life. He had been a minister of the Gospel for the most part of his long and useful life. He did not just preach, but he practiced what he preached. In our honest judgment there was never a better man in our midst than we he. His true friends were numbered by his acquaintance. All who knew him loved him. He died easy and happy in his Savior's love. His advice was always to live better. It was hard to give up such a neighbor and friend, but only death could relieve him of his suffering. Uncle Newt was truly one of those who had had their robes washed in the blood of the Lamb. He called the neighbors and relatives to his bedside a few days before he died and advised them to follow the example he had set. Which, if it was followed by all our people, would make almost heaven here on this ball we call the earth. Farewell farewell father for a while, He left loved ones with a smile, He is truly gone now from us, But we will go to him after a while. He is truly resting from all his loabor now, But his works will follow, follow, follow on. By one who thinks he truly knew him. J M MORROW.
