His wife was Alta Jane Hankins and his closest relative was Martha Dalton of Cassville, MO and she was the informant on the death certificate. He was a farmer, age 86, and widowed. The cause of death was given as arteriosclerosis. - December 29, 1917, Saturday, Cassville Democrat - Allen Bush who has been visiting his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Eschol (Estle) Bush of near this city returned to Tulsa, Okla., Thursday night, Roy Bush accompanied him. - Cassville Republican, Thursday, August 1, 1918 - Allen and Carl Bush have been working in Oklahoma arrived home Saturday. Carl was called for examination last week but obtained a transfer and was examined in Oklahoma and passed. They are sons of Mr. and Mrs. Estel Bush. - Cassville Democrat, March 27, 1920 - JENKINS: On the 20th one of Estel Bush's boys and his little sister were coming to Jenkins with produce and when they drove on to the bridge, the mule they were driving got badly scared at a large hole in the floor of the bridge and backed the buggy against the railing that was very rotten, which gave way and the buggy, mule and occupants dropped about 12 feet to the ground, throwing the little girl to one side, causing her to escape serious injury. The brother went down to the wreck, but could not aid his sister, until after reaching the earth. The little girl was taken to Dr. Perriman's home, where Mrs. looked after her, until the Dr. returned. A cow belonging to C. W. Lassister broke through the bridge Saturday and Ben Zinn helped the cow out of the hole. The Dr., returned and made an examination, and decided she was not hurt, but badly shook up. We do not wonder at the mule scaring at such a hole. We witnessed the accident of the Bush children. One would think to go to some parts of the county and see some of the bridge work that the east part of the county was not on the map, but I find by looking on the printed map, that Jenkins is located, as well as towns in the south and west and other parts. A part of the bridge work at Jenkins has been out of commission for four or five years and our citizens and road overseers have been reporting the condition for sometime. I don't know why there is nothing done, but it appears that the eastern district pays its taxes the same as the western does, be we fail to get, you may say, anything in the way of bridge work or so near nothing, there is not much difference. We will say with due respect to the county, that we feel it would be only justice, and the time is here for something to be done in the east part in the way of highway and bridge work. - Another Photo Culver's Funeral Home,
