Knox passed away Monday. Funeral held at the family home being conducted by Rev. J.A. Matthews. There were many beautiful flowers which were a fitting tribute to the beautiful woman who in life was a great lover of them. Among the out of town who attended the funeral were Mrs. C.C. Culton of Waco, sister of Mr. Knox, Mr. And Mrs. Chris L. Knox of Corsicana, Mrs. Maurice Johnson of Fort Worth, Mr. S.B. Hovey and Mrs. W.A. Durenger of Fort Worth. Mrs. Knox was a Pennsylvania by birth, but with her marriage to James W. Knox, Jacksboro, Texas, became her home. She loved her home and her friends as few women do, and especially was she strongly attached to her old friends. Her beautiful home was always open, and a welcome from her that was delightful and will always be remembered. Mrs. Knox had long been a member of the Presbyterian Church, and while she was not an active worker in Jacksboro’s church societies and the clubs organized to develop all the best interests of the town, she was a most enthusiastic and liberal patron of each of them. She was a woman who was loved best by those who knew her best, and her friends whom she loved will miss her more than words can express, and her husband, James W. Knox and sister, Miss Alice Connor.
