Obit For Thomas Saunders
Headline -
Text Thomas Saunders, age 19 years, died Friday, April 12, 1907, at the home of his cousins, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Henbest, about 2 miles east of town of pneumonia. His brother John arrived a short time before he died from Weketka, I. T. and James, another brother, arrived in time for the funeral.

Thomas came from Weketka I. T. to attend school in this city and took sick on the 6th, and died the 12th. Everything that relatives could do to restore him to health was done, but without avail. Tom's spirit returned to Him who gave it.

The remains were laid to rest in the Horner Cemetery, Saturday. He was a son of the late Monroe Saunders a former well known citizen of Golden, and a nephew of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Ledgerwood of near Shell Knob.

The relatives request us to return their heartfelt thanks to their neighbors and friends for their very kind assistance during his sickness.
