DEATH OF MR. JAMES TOWNSENO.
At fi o'clock Monday morning,
March 15, 1015, the death of Mr.
James Townsend occurred at
the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Fannie Kennedy, at the advanced
age of 90 years and 25 days.
Up to a short time ago he was
in splendid health, and had it
not been for the injuries sum
tained from a fall at the home of
his daughter a few weeks ago,
he would likely have reached the
100th mile post in life, which hid
been his greatest desire for
many years.
Mr. Townsend was born in
Tennessee, February 18, 1HP', and
came to Texas among the earl.v
settlers and had lived in Bastrsp
county since about 1850.
Funeral services were con
ducted by Rev. W. O. Stephen*
5:30 o'clock, Monday afternoon,
with interment in Fairview.
Thus lias a long, useful and
eventful life closed, and after a
sojourn here of near a century,
"Grandpa" Townsend has been
called higher and his soul ha.-
returned to God who gave it.
