All Bryan was greatly shocked yes
terday morning when the sad news
was phoned in from the Brazos bottom
that Capt. Win. A. Bell was dead. At
first t was hard .to believe that this
stalwart, strong, manly man was dead,
but additional messages came giving
assurance that the report was only too
true.
Death came suddenly without a
moments warning and was evidently
the result of heart failure. The partic
ulars as the Eagle gathered them are
about as follows: He had gone from
bis home on the Parker plantation
down to his own farm some three
miles away and wa3 riding over the
farm inspecting the work being done
by the hands. He alighted from hio
horse to assist a negro in adjusting
his plow, and as soon as adjusted the
nof.ro drove on. After toiny: a short
listance lie looked back and jusi as
he did so t'apt. lieil was falling. II
iiiiinediatt l.v ran to him, but he never
spoke and drew his last breath just
as the negro reachd him.
News was at once sent to the Park
er s'oic and Mr. .Milton Parker and
several other gentlemen went down
and conveyed his lifeless body to his
Ineliie. As soon as the news reached
Bryan, Messrs. (J. S. Parker, .1. 1'. But
ler, Seth .Mooring, Dr. W. 1 1. Oliver.
.1 O. Chance and K. 1 1. Aslln left at
onee for the Parker planiation in ilie
bottom. Of course I le y found him
beyond the pale of human aid. but
the jjreat friendship they cherished
for the distinguished dead inflil"!ieed
them in wishing to be nenr 'him to
rentier whatever assistance wasiii.s-ib!e.
('apt. Hell Nits iil y arsand a months '
of age. Ho was born in Grimes coun
ty near N'nvasotn, but came to I'.raos !
'county when six yuars of aso and was!
! raised near Ibis city by his uncle, fan'., i
YVm. Bell i-'r. Soon aft r reaching his
I majority h' went to the Bi azoj bo'
! torn to live and soon thereafter was
j engaged by Mr. M. Parker To assist
I in managing his extensive farming
'interests. He had continued in thi
capacity for the past tl:i::y
was beyond quest on one of the mo -4
successful farmers, as well as farm
managers, to be found anywhere. It
Is doubtful if he had an equal In Tex
as. The hands under him held him
almost in reverence, their great re
spect being won by hi-i quiet, gentle,
yet absolute firmness with them. With
the other managers and owners in the
boitoui. he was alwas in perfect har
mony and bore their good will and
highest esteem. When asked upon
one occasion the secret of his perfect
harmony with all about him, replied
that he made it a rule to treat the
other fellow just a little better than
tne treatment he received from him.
' Capt. Bell was a perfect type of the
Southern gentleman. Courteous and
amiable to all with whom he came in
contact, as brave as a lion, yet as gen
tle and tender as a woman. Strong
and rugged physically, with a heart
of oak, and a sense of hnor that was
never questioned. By his upright life,
his square, fair dealng with hU fellow
men, he was respected and revered
by all, anil builded for himself a monu
ment more lasting than brass-the
monument of a good name, that which
is! to be desired rather than great
riches.
Mr. Bell wa3 neever married and
leaves no family of his own. He had
one half sister, Mrs. John R. Davis of
Iola, and was an uncle of W. H.. and
C. M. Bell of this city. He was also
related to Mrs. Sam L. Eaves, Mrs.
Burt Norwood, Mr. John Nabors, and
ha other relatives in different parts
of the state. Vl
He will be laid to rest in the City
(emetery this afternoon at 2:30
o'clock, the funeral to be conducted
from the residence of Mrs. Bettie Bell
