Obituary

Died, in this city, Wednesday, Dec. 13, 1899, at 5:45 a.m., JOHN FRANCIS WRATHER, who was born in Corpus Christi, Aug. 21, 1880.

The death of this young man, though expected for weeks past, was nevertheless a sad one.  He knew he had but a short time to live.  He is now at rest, gone to that home where there is no more pain and suffering.  He has answered that summons which all must answer sooner or later.  To his bereaved mother and sorely afflicted family The Caller joins hosts of friends in extending the most sincere sympathy.

The funeral took place yesterday at 10:30 o’clock from the family residence.
