Surnames: Marshall Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/5YB.2ACE/2633 Message Board Post: Hugh Cary Marshall, son of Mr. and Mrs. W.A. Marshall, born at Rankin, Okla., June 2, 1915, died Feb. 6, 1917, age 1 year, 8 months and 4 days. He was the youngest of thirteen children, ten of whom are living. The little fellow started to follow his father down to the mail box, where he was haying the road, and on being told to go back, started to return. In a few minutes his mother and brother, who were in the house missed the baby and hurried out to look for him, only a few moments elaspsed before his mother found his lifeless little body floating with the broken ice in the large cement watering tank. Dr. Cary was immediately called and although he arrived in an incredibly short time, nothing could be done and the little boyd was laid to rest in the Rankin (White Rose) cemetery, Reydon, Roger Mills County, Oklahoma Wednesday afternoon, Feb. 8th. Words of loving sympathy and comfort were spoken by Rev. Charles Hagemeirer of the Methodist church, while neighbors and friends tried tn every way to show their sympathy in this sad hour to the heart broken father and mother, grandparents and children. However the greatest comfort of all comes from the risen Lord, "Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God." (Cheyenne Star Feb 15, 1917)
