Obituary Robert S. White   Ellis County Mirror - January 15, 1909 Word was received Friday morning of the death of Bob White, son of R. M. White. Mr. White and Miss Mary Briggs, daughter of W. A. Briggs,  were married only a few weeks ago, beginning their new life together during the Christmas holidays.  However, last Thursday, it was learned that Bob had some form of throat trouble which led to blood poisoning and died, despite all  efforts by physicians to save his life. Funeral services were held in the Central Presbyterian Church conducted by both present and former pastors with burial service conducted at the home of W. A. Briggs.  Many of his classmates at Trinity University came from all over the state to pay honor to their friend from school.   Copyright © 2008-2016, Ellis County TXGenWeb. All Rights Reserved.
