Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/HlB.2ACI/2567 Message Board Post: The Jacksboro Gazette Thursday, December 4, 1924 L.H. Bryant of Jacksboro, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. A.C. Hart of Athens, 27 November 1924, after suffering from a stroke of paralysis. Funeral services conducted in Athens by the Masonic Lodge. Mr. Bryant was for many years one of the leading educators of Texas. His residence in Jacksboro dates from about 1890 when he accepted the presidency of the North Texas Baptist College, also professor of mathematics and was connected with the institution in various capacities until it was disbanded. He later served as county superintendent. Many of the leading men and women of the state were numbered among his pupils. Mr. Bryant was a member of the First Baptist Church and the Masonic Lodge. Survived by Mrs. Bryant, son – Victor; 2 daughters – Mrs. Jess Robinson of Jacksboro and Mrs. A.C. Hart of Athens. The Jacksboro Gazette Thursday, December 11, 1924 Professor L.H. Bryant is Called by Death By F.S. Groner in Baptist Standard Professor L.H. Bryant, who spent a great part of his life at Athens and Jacksboro, was one of the leading educators of north Texas. His parents moved to Texas when he was only three months old, and he, therefore, regarded himself as a native Texan. He served in the Confederate army, all of his service being within the confines of Texas. He was reared with Governor Hogg, Horace Chilton and John H. Reagan, and knew these three celebrities personally and intimately. In speaking of them, he always called them by their given names. He was so personally acquainted with R.C. Burleson and Sam Houston, and was as noble and faithful Roman as any of these though in a less conspicuous way. He lived to a ripe old age. He would have been 84 years old 22 December 1924. Professor Bryant was one of the most thorough scholars of his time, in Texas, and it is probably not too much to say that he did not have a superior in Texas as a mathematician. I have heard some of the most notable educators certify that he was unsurpassed in his specialty, which was mathematics. One of the greatest things about the life and career of L.H. Bryant was his personal integrity and sublime Christian character, and the high motives which he instilled in those who came under his tutelage as a teacher. He taught a number of years in Athens and other east Texas towns, and was later connected with the old North Texas Baptist College at Jacksboro. He began with that institution as professor of mathematics, and was president of North Texas Baptist College the last two years of its existence. The writer delights to honor Professor Bryant as a personal friend and benefactor. It became my duty to have a part in the funeral service with Pastor M.L. Fuller at Athens, 28 November 1924 and it was indeed a solemn and withal a sad duty. Few individuals have meant more to my life than this great and true man and stalwart Christian preceptor. Some of the most useful and conspicuous men in public life today, in Texas, and adjacent states, were at one time pupils of Professor Bryant. I think of Senator Faulk of Athens, Judge John P. Simpson of Jacksboro; Superintendent L.Z. Timmons of Throckmorton, T.J. McComb, insurance and banking commissioner of Oklahoma; Justice Walter Hays of the Supreme Court of Oklahoma; Judge Robert A. Hefner and Lewis Johnson, prominent attorneys and capitalists of Ardmore; Dr. and Mrs. Hal F. Buckner of Dallas, Rev. R.E.L. Farmer, one of the noblest Texas preachers and at one time president of Wayland College, now deceased and his wife; W.H. Vance! , prominent business man of El Paso; and his wife. At the funeral at Athens, Senator Faulk made one statement that correctly epitomized the life of L.H. Bryant when he said, “Professor Bryant was a success in the truest sense of the word. No man ever more truly invested his life in the building of character in other lives than did this great and true Christian and scholarly gentleman.” He died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. A.C. Hart of Athens, who he leaves to mourn his departure along with another daughter, Mrs. Jesse Robinson of Jacksboro; a son – V.H. Bryant of Oklahoma.

Gaskin received word that his mother had died at the home of her daughter in Indiana. The body will be returned to Jack County for burial which will take place at Finis. The Jacksboro Gazette Thursday, November 27, 1924 Sarah E. Gaskin, daughter of John and Sarah A. Stark, was born 1841 and died 1924; aged 83 years. She departed this life at the home of her daughter, Mrs. William Patten of Farmersburg, Indiana, Sunday. She was a member of a family of 11 children – four sisters and seven brothers – all of whom have preceded her to the spirit land except one sister, Mrs. Nancy Huntwork of California. In1860 she was united in marriage to E.C. Gaskin. To this union were born eight children, two daughters and six sons – Elizabeth Patten of Farmersburg, Indiana, Ora Swift of Terre Haute, Frank of California, Webster (deceased), John, Wade, Charles (deceased) and Harry, all of Texas. Her husband departed this life at their former home in Texas several years ago. Their membership was severed from the Liberty congregation in Indiana and associated with the Church of Christ in their home congregation in Texas. Some time after the death of her husband she returned to Sullivan County, Indiana and to the home of her daughter, placing her membership with the Church of Christ in Farmersburg. Her Christian life was like a city upon a hill, it could not be hid. Her walk was in the way of truth and righteousness. She loved her neighbors, friends, relatives, and her family was all to her. She was a consistent Bible reader and called for a reading the day before she passed away. The reading was concluded with the beautiful words of Jesus to his disciples when he said, “let us go hence.” The heart so full of love and faith, the gentle hand that waved good-bye seemed to indicate that the lips could only whisper softly “Farewell to mortality – welcome eternity; Jesus is mine.” (Written by Mrs. Amanda J. De Vaun, an old friend and neighbor of Farmersburg, Indiana).

Smith from heart failure. He was last seen alive Friday by Jesse Hill who visited the deceased in his room over the First National Bank. Mr. Hill stated that at that time he was in good spirits and was enjoying life. He was next seen when found dead by employees of the Telephone Company Saturday. He had apparently been dead for several hours at that time. Mr. Smith was one of the best known men and probably had more friends than any other person in Jack County. Coming to Jacksboro shortly after 1865, from his native home in east Tennessee, he became acquainted with the different phases of the development of Jack County and was considered an authority on many subjects. For the past 22 years he was employed by the Perkins-Timberlake Company. Funeral conducted by Rev. C.N. Wylie at the Presbyterian church and interment took place at Decatur where other members of his family are buried. Mr. Smith was an active member of the Presbyterian church and the Knights of Pythias Lodge. Survived by a nephew – Frank J.

Aynes received the sad news Tuesday of the death of her father, J.Y. Light in Fort Worth. On the eve of a reunion with his old comrades with whom he so often faced death while fighting under the Stars and Bars more than 50 years ago James Y. Light, Confederate Veteran of Electra, was killed Tuesday when struck by a street car at Fifteenth and Main streets. The aged man had just arrived in Fort Worth to attend the annual State meeting of the United Confederate Veterans, Texas division and the Sons of Confederate Veterans, which opens here Wednesday. He was struck by a northbound street car as he dodged an automobile, according to T. W. Wren, general claim agent of the Northern Texas Traction Company, who is investigating the accident. When taken from under the car the veteran’s coat was caught between the brake shoe and the wheel, although the wheel had not injured him, according to ambulance drivers. His skull was fractured and he was dead when removed. The corner at which he was killed is not provided with electric traffic signals, as are all street intersections nearer the center of the business district. Mrs. Aynes was greatly shocked from the report of the death and was unable to go to the funeral of her father which will be held in Gainesville, the old family home. Mr. Light is survived by three daughters, Mrs. D.N. Aynes of Jacksboro, Mrs. Georgia Landers of Dallas, Mrs. Annie Hensley of Altus, Oklahoma; 2 sons – Ira Light of Electra and Charlie Light.
