HERE FROM HOUSTON.
J. E. Bishop came out Thursday
from Houston to see about the fin-
ishing up of gathering the top crop
of cotton on his place West of Co-
tulla. It was his first visit since
the election, and he is still radiating
over the results. As a matter of
fact Mr. Bishop i:> one of the very
few men that contended that Hoover
would carry Texas. Just before the
election, we were showing him some
figures of some very prnmim nt men,
who gave Harris county to Smith by
a comfortable majority, iw<i he said
they werg wrong and that Houston
and Harris ounty would give Hoover
a majority without a doubt, and add-
ed from the information he had,
which he believed was reliable, every
large city in the state would go for
Hoover except San Antonio, and that
Texas would land in the Hoover col-
umn. He was correct, although at
the time we couldn’t see it that way.

(From Karnes County News.)
After a tedious illness extending
: over a period of several years, Mrs.
Gus R. Hoff, nee Anna Tips, a mem-
ber of one of Range's most promi-
nent families, quietly breathed her
last at 1:30 o’clock Tuesday after-
noon, November 13, in San Antonio.
Her mother, Mrs. G. Tip; Sr., who
had been at her bedside for the past
fifteen months, left her Monday to
come to llunge for a uay or so and
was apparently as well as usual.
While there wa; very little hope held
| out by relatives for her.
•Mrs. Hoff was the youngest daugh-
ter of Mrs. Gus Tips Sr., and was
re: red in Iiunge. (She was born
November 14, 1899, and reached the
age of 28 years, 11 months and 29
days ist the time of her death.
Here i.she played as a child, devel-
oped into beautiful girlhood; here
Jhe attended school .<nd received her
education and graduated from the
Runge Public Schools in the year
1917, ttad was an excellent and hon-
ored student, several times having
won honors for her class at the
county meet; here she married and
here her buisy life wi.e spent, her
faithful service rendered to the world.
In this dearest of all places to her,
she lies down at length to sleep and
rest. Beautifully appropriate such
a resting place, where her kindred
sleep and where a few of her life-
long friends remain to gather about
i the dear form with honest tears of
1 bereavement, to lay her away tender-
ly in the narrow house with its cur-
j tains of fadeless color.
She attended C. I. 4. at Denton and
later the State Teachers College at
Huntsville. For a little less than
one term she was employed by the
Yorktown Public Schools as teacher.
She was married on January 7,
1920, to Gus R. Hoff of Yorktown.
They lived at Yorktown for several
years, until her health failed her
when they moved' to Cotulla and for
the past several yeilrs. In the hope
of effecting a cure, she visited var-
ious health resorts, consulted many
specialists and did all that was hu-
manly possible to stay the hand of
death, but the only reward of these
efforts was the prolongation of the
fateful day.
None but those who have sat in
the shadow of a great bereavement
can justly weigh isuch a sorrow as
this. Those who have gone down
into the valley of suffering and stood
for months by the side of a loved one,
as hope after hope dropped away as
the petals fall from a fading flower,
know that such anguish cannot find
solace in the tenderest words. She
who has gone forth could not be sup-
ported on her solitary path by any
earthly friend. The husband with a
devotion few men are capable of,
whose strength was given sweetly,
| tenderly to his precious invalid, and
the h- ng mother, whose heroic de-
votion never faltered, could not de-
tain her by the clasp of earthly love.
So thisi life has passed into the joy
of her Lord, the memory of her life
j must prove a perpetual inspiration.
Gone from our sight, but because
life and love are stronger than death
she is ours still. She is still the
mother of the dear child, Gus Ralph
Jr., upon whom she doted with such
| clinging fondness, and the contpan-
j ion still of him who mourns earth’3
i greatest loss, and may she not by
this very transition wield over them
I a stronger force for goodness and
truth than before.
Her remains were brought down
from San Antonio Wednesday after-
noon and carried to the old family
home in this city.
She leaves to mourn her passing
to the great beyond, a broken heart-
ed husband, one son, Gus Ralph Jr.,
age 7, a fond mother and three
brothers. Geo. H. Tips, of Kenedy;
Gus and Walter Tips of Runge and
a number of other relatives.
All of the family connection above-
named and many others more dis-
tantly related were here for the fun-
eral this afternoon at 3:30 o’clock in
the Runge cemetery. Rev. C. H.
Spence, Supt. of the Public Schools
of Edna and brother-in-law of the
deceased, assisted by Revs. T. F.
Young and F. R. Banks conducted the
funeral services at the residence and
at the grave. The services at the
grave being one of the most beauti-
ful this writer has ever heard. ,
After the service the casket was
opened for the last time and many
viewed the last remains.
The floral offerings surpassed in
profusion and beauty anything ever
seen here before.
To the bereaved husband, child,
mother and brothers. The News ex-
tends its sincerest sympathy in this
their sad hour of darkness.
