When a telegram was received^
early Sunday night from Mrs. Frank
Hardin, in New Orleans- that Mrs.
O. S. White, with whom she was
attending the national convention
of the American Legion, had .been
fatally injured in a street car acci-
dent, the entire city of Weatherford
was shocked beyond measure. „
pall of gloom seemed to settlte over
the city and Monday morning, our
people could hardly believe the re-
port of Mrs. White’s death. The
sudden death of one of Weatherford’s
most useful, most valuable citizens,
either man <jr woman, seemed almost
unbelievable, but is true, neverthe-
less.
The telegram from Mrs. Hardin
lailc-d to give any of the details of
the accident, other than that she was
struck by a car and died while on the
way to a sanitarium. The -following
telegram from the Associated Press
was received by the Herald this
morning:
“Newr Orleans—Mrs. George B.
White, of Weatherford, Vice Presi-
dent of the Woman’s Auxiliary 'of
the American Legion in Texas, died
last night as a result cf injuries re-
ceived when struck by a Tulane
Belt street car. She was rushed to
the Turo Infirmary, but died soon
after reaching the hospital.’’
A second telegram from Mrs. Har.
din was to the effect that she was
accompanying the body home and
left New Orleans at eleven o’clock
Monday morning. The cortege should
arrive in Weatherford at ten o’clock
Tuesday morning. Funeral arrange-
ments have ndt been made, pending
word from her husband. G. S. White,
who. at noon Monday had not yet
learned of Mrs. White’s death. Mr.
White left here Saturday enroute
to visit his ranches at .Colorado and
at Fort Stockton. Telegrams have
been despatched to every possible
point at which he might be reached.
It has just been learned that he

party and "will come with them to
Weatherford. Mrs. Chas. Corn, of
Houston,* Is here as is Mrs. Helen
Semplei of Eastland, and her hus-
band.
Mrs. White and Mrs. Hardin left
Weattherford Friday evening late for
New Orleans. They went through
Houston and took breakfast with
her daughter, Mrs. Patterson and is
supposed to have arrived in New
Orleans sometime Saturday night or
Sunday morning. However, details
of any description are lacking, as
regards the accident. It is not
known here whether Mrs. White was
walking or was in a car, when the
tragedy occurred-
Mrs. T. R. Erwin, an intimate
friend of Mrs. White said that Mrs.
White was not feeling very well
Friday and hesitated in starting on
the trip, . but decided she could go
Her daughter remarked that she was
not feeling well when she ate break-
fast with them in Houston, Saturday
morning, but her slight Illness is
not believed tor have any connection,
with the accident which cost her
life.
Mrs. White has been an outstand
ing personality in (he affairs of
Weatherford for many years. She
has been very prominent in the social
and club life of the city and as is
well known, devoted most of her
time to civic improvement and the
welfare of the city at large. All of
her noble work has been ntarked by
an unselfish spirit that is indeed a
rarity in the present time. She has
not only devoted her lime to the im-
provement of her home town and to
her people, but has contributed large-
ly t6 the financing of the many
projects under her guidance. Verily
Weatherford could ill spare such a
great woman, and her death has
caused sadness in every home in
the city. A more. complete history
wf her life and activities will appear
in 'Tuesday’s paper, together with
details of the accident..

ENGLAND DISAGREES IN
SEARCH AND SEIZURE
By Associated Press
Washington. Oct. 16.—Great Britain,
in a communication delivered today
to the state department, is understood
to have declined to agree to the sug-
gestion Secretary Hughes for a recip-
rocal agreement for the extension of
the right of search and seizure so as
to give the American prohibition navy
jurisdiction outside the three mile
limit.
The British foreign office assured
the American government that every
precaution would be taken to prevent
violation of the American prohibition
law >by rdm smugglers under the Brit-
ish flag.
It was that Canadian and other port
officials had been instructed to pre-
vent. so far as possible, the issuance
of fraudulent clearance papers and
other, practice’s complained of in the
Hughes prohibition note.
It is predicted that the reign ot t
King George of Greece will be of
short duration. Greece certainly is
there with her fall line of kingB.
