Sudden Death Of  D. B. Browning D. B. Browning, a pioneer resident of the Lela neighborhood, was found dead in bed at the home of his son L. D. Browning at Hulbert early Sunday morning, February 26.

Heart trouble is thought to have been the cause. His wife had but recently passed away and he had gone to Hulbert to make his home with his son Lloyd. Saturday morning he was seized with a coughing spell, and a physician was summoned and pronounced the ailment as not being serious. Mr. Browning retired Saturday night with his little grandson and his indisposition was not regarded as being dangerous. Sunday morning he was found dead by members of the family, who became alarmed because he had not arose at his usual time. The remains were brought to the old home near Lela the first of last week for funeral services and interment.

Death of Mrs. D. B. Browning "Seek ye the narrow path and the straight gate that leads to eternal life." Another life has passed out and gone to the God, who gave it. The immutable certainty of death is again brought home by the passing of Mrs. D. B. Browning, who after a lingering illness passed on and up to the Heavenly abode. Heavens choir has joined in the chorus "Jesus Saves, Sweetly Saves." The grim messenger of death comes when we least expect him, and when we scarcely realize the great anguish of spirit it brings. Yet it is always thus with human life – our plans, hopes and ambitions built until we are confronted with the uncertainty of human life. Designs are laid down, hopes are past and ambitions are twarped. But the ideal of Christian character abides and lives on to inspire and guide aright. The soul passes on to the God who gave it and there awaits those loved ones left behind.
