ROBBED OF GOLD
A daylight burglary ... was perpetrat
ed in the heart of the city Sunday
afternoon when Dr. J. H. Tolson’s
dental, office was entered and some
|40 or $50 worth of gold bridges and
crowns were stolen. Dr. Tolsbn was
out of the city during the afternoon,
and says the robbery occurred some
time between the hours of 1 and 8:30
p. m. and that entrance to the of-
fice was made over the transom win-

was a native son, whom Cuero citi-
zenship was pleased to designate as a
representative of the best class among
us, a thorough going Southern gentle-
man.
Even in the heyday of exultant youth
we find that self denial and sacrifice
were component parts of his well de-
flred character. While ether boys
with legs ambition and less ability,
were qualifying for place and position
in life, he, feeling that mother and
sisters needed the comforts his earn-
ings could provide, turned his back up
on the opportunities that beckoned,
rolled up his sleeves and went to work

Mexico, and three sisters, Mrs, J. F.
Edwards, a married sister in Colorado,
and Miss Mamie Schleicher.
The funeral services have been ar-
ranged to occur this afternoon at fouf
o’clock from the family residence on
Depot street, and will be under the
auspices of Jewel Lodge Knights of
Pythias, of which he was an esteemed
member. Interment will be made in
our Hillside cemetery.
To those who mourn his untimely
demise the Record joins in full ^sym-
pathy; and especially to his imhjedi-
ate household, all of whom have been
sick for the past week or more, our
deepest condolence is offered.
