JAMES F. CATRON DEAD
Passed Peacefully Away Tuesday Evening at 5:45 O'Clock
James F. Catron died Tuesday evening at 5:45 o'clock at his home on North 17th street after a lingering illness of several months. Mr. Catron had been in a critical condition during the late winter, but a few weeks ago his condition had improved, and hopes were entertained that his life would be spared to his family and friends for many more years. Last Sunday his condition took a turn for the worse. He had a fainting spell from which he only partially recovered, and yesterday evening at 2 o'clock he became unconscious and gradually sank into death's embrace.
Mr. Catron was a native of Lafayette county having been born on a farm near the city. He was the son of John and Mary Catron, who were pioneer settlers of this county, and was born August 16, 1837. At the beginning of the war he was engaged in farming in Henry county, but owing to the unsettled conditions there, he returned to this county. He afterwards made the trip to Colorado with an ox team returning in about a year. With these exceptions he has always lived in Lafayette county. On November 4, 1896, he was married to Miss Maggie Marshall. To this union one daughter, Elizabeth, was born, who with his wife survives him. He is also survived by two brothers and two sisters, who are as follows: T.B. Catron, United States Senator from New Mexico, John Catron of Rosenburg, Texas, Mrs. Jas. A. Gordon and Mrs. Mary J. Goodson of Marshall, Mo.
Mr. Catron was a true type of the honest, honorable and patriotic citizen. He was a man of considerable means and besides his farming interests, he was a stockholder in the Commercial Bank and other business institutions. He was a loyal friend, and a kind and loving husband and father.
The funeral services were held Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the Christian church. Rev. S. Boyd White, assisted by Dr. A.E. Rogers, conducted the services. The masonic lodge of which he had been a member for more than forty years, attended the funeral in a body and conducted the last sad rites at the grave.
