MRS. MOZCLLE P. WILSON.
After a brief illness Mr. Mozelle
P. Wilson died Sunday morning in
' this city at the home of her par
ents Mr. and Mrs. T. I. Boyett.
Mrs. Wilson was 21 years old and
was lorn and reared in Bryan.
She was greatly beloved by all for
her sweet and womanly character
and kindly dipoeition. In her
girlhood the was like a ray of gun-
ehine in the home and in the cir
cle of friends who knew and loved
her so devotedly.
On the fir.-t of last O.-tober the
was united in marriage to Mr. Al-
bert Wilson of Hour-ton by lie v.
Jewell Howard and no happier
bride ever left the parental roof
with fond blessings to go and make
a home for a more manly and de
voted young husband. Would that
we might end the story here but
the happiness of this new home
was brief and its ending tragic
beyond the power of language to
describe. Mr. Wilson was a brake-
man on the Houston and Texas
Central railroad and one day five
mouths ago when his girl wife
was expecting hini home from his
run there came instead the cruel
terrible heartbreaking tidings that
he was dead mangled by the
merciless wheels of his train at
Hempstead.
Few are called upon to endure
such awful agony and none could

themselves but they have taken
care of their laborers and fed and
clothed those living and working
on their farms in many instances
without hope of compensation.
The planters have shown them-
vlve brave liberal and charita-
ble and they are naturally indig-
nant aud ju-tly fo regarding the
publication. Again there are only
two couvitt farms iu the Brazos
bottom in the territory contiguous
to Bryan. They are at. Mumford

to the ir.anncr in which they are
conducted. Any person who U-
lieves t the contrary is at liberty
to go there any day and cee for him-
self ju-t what the conditions are.
The oversows are due to natural
cau.-e- and can and will be abated
l.y the use of levees. The Meteor
could serve a far better purpose by
joining in the effort to brin' about
this much d'-sired re-ult which
would mean o much not only to
the Uraros bottom and to Bryan
but t-' tlii whole section of the
state.

settled upon her fair young life
was as deep and impenetrable as
her happinets had been glorious
and complete. he came again to
the home of her childhood and all
the wealth of tenderness and love
of father mother brothers and sis-
ters was lavished upon her but
they brought no smile to the
pale sweet face. And then God
looked in mercy and compaseion
upon her broken heart and the
angels beckoned to her and the
babe for which her life was given
that they might join the waiting
husband where pain and death
and partings never come.
The hearts of the people of
Bryan have been deeply touched
by the weight of sorrow that has
fallen ujon this devoted home
and a very .arge company of friends
assembled yesterday morning to
offer such consolation as they
might to the living and pay a part-
ing tribute to the dead.
The eame minister who had sol-
emnized the marriage came with
