DEATH OF DAN WHITE

Banker and Farmer of Pritchett

Mr. Dan White, 78, prominent farmer and banker of Pritchett, 
died at his home at that place Tuesday evening. He is survived 
by a wife and six sons; Mr. Irvin White of Childress, Wesley, 
Ratio, Harve, Jack and Jess, all of Pritchett.

Mr. White was one of the oldest and most respected citizens of 
the Pritchett community and one of his neighbors said he had 
lived close to him for a time and had never heard a man speak 
of him in any way except with praise.

He was president of Pritchett State Bank and a prominent farmer 
and was greatly esteemed by all who had the pleasure of his 
acquaintance and the news of his death will be learned with deep 
regret wherever he was known.

His funeral took place at 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon and his 
remains were laid to rest in the Pritchett Cemetery, a large 
concourse of friends and relatives turning out to pay this last 
said tribute of respect to the memory of a good man, an honest 
man, a kind neighbor and a good husband and an indulgent father. 
Peace be to his memory.
