Transcribed from the Goldthwaite Eagle-Mullin Enterprise microfilm, from a poor reverse image photocopy, dated October 27, 1917 A FATAL ACCIDENT Mr. W. E. GRAY was thrown from his wagon and killed Tuesday about noon, near his home in the Bethel community. He was engaged in moving some benches from the Bethel church to Live Oak and after unloading his wagon started to drive down the incline from the church toward his home. The wagon ran against his horses, which caused them to take fright and run away. They had proceeded a very short distance when he was thrown from the wagon and his neck was broken as he struck the ground. Indications were that he died instantly; and it is certain that he was dead when those who saw the accident reached him. His nephew, who was also on the wagon started to run, jumped to the ground and was painfully bruised by the fall, but his injuries were not serious. Mr. GRAY's body was carried to his home nearby and the funeral was held Thursday. Interment being made in the Bethel Cemetery. Mr. GRAY was on of the best men the world ever knew and no man can find a fault in his life or character. He was a friend to the friendless and orphan children were special objects of care to him. He was a devout and for years one of the most dependable, Liberal and pious members of the Methodist Church in his home community. He was about 60 years of age and spent most of his life in the community where the unfortunate accident caused his death. His wife preceded him to the better world about seventeen years ago but he leaves several grown children, an aged mother, three brothers and three sisters and other relatives who are especially bereaved by his passing away, but all who knew him or were in someway associated with him are grieved and join the family sorrow. -=-==-==-= Permission to transcribe and use was given by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bridges; Editor's of the Goldthwaite Eagle-Mullin.
