County: -
Rev. Templin Dead.
Rev. G. W. Templin died Wednes-
day in San Antonio, where he had been
for some time under treatment for pala-
gra and complications. His remains
were shipped to Mullin, where funeraj
services were held yesterday morning at
1 1 o’clock, an immense congregation
being present to pay respects to the good
man’s memory and extend sympathy to
his bereaved family.
Brother Tcmplin was one of the most
universally beloved men this country ever
knew. He was a pioneer of the minis-
try in this section and doubtless officiated
at more marriage ceremonies and con-
ducted more funeral services than any
other preacher who ever lived in this
part of Texas. He was a member of
the Methodist church, but the sphere of
his Christian influence and the circle of
his friendship extended far beyond de-
nominational lines. Everybody had con-
fidence in him and all who knew him
were grieved when the announcement
of his death reached them.
While the greater part of his life was
devoted to the ministry, he was forced
to give up the work some years ago on
account of losing his voice. He did not
lose interest in the great cause, however,
but continued active i* the service as
far as his influence reached. He served
the county as treasurer four years and
later engaged in other lines of activity
until failing health forced his retirement.
He spent some months in Galveston
under special treatment and was later
moved to San Antonio, but without ben-
fit and he continued to decline until the
end came.
His wife and eight children, besides
other relatives, are left to mourn his
death and in their sorrow they have the
sympathy of a host of friends. His
children are Mesdames A. J. Cockrum.
McAlister, McDavid and Ivy and
Messrs. Bascom, Marvin, George and
Sam Templin.

There i>s honor enough for us

a young man' who was born; in
Goldthwaite and spent several
years of his childhood here. We
ore willing- that Houston should
claim an interest iini him, for after
ail he is like the other splendid
young men who have gene from
ibis and other counties.—he is an
American eitizen.

Houstoniain, has probably arrived
