"J. F. Archer, 55, died Monday afternoon near Minerva. He had been cutting wood and was returning to a house in which he was camping. Evidently he felt he could go no further and sat down. He was later found dead.

He was born Oct. 14, 1886, in Mississippi, later coming to Texas. He was a Veteran of World War No. 1. He enlisted in the army in 1917 and remained until 1919.

He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Esta [Esther] Phelps Archer, 2 sons, Edwin and Elton Archer of Houston, 2 daughters, Naomi and Fayona Archer of Cameron, and one sister Mrs. L. C. Smith of Fort Worth.

Funeral services will be held at 2 p. m. at Powers Chapel Church near Rosebud with interment in the Powers Chapel Cemetery. Rev. C. W. Sanders, Pastor of the First Baptist Church of Cameron, will conduct the services. Green's Funeral Home will direct arrangements."
