Died, near Coleman, Coleman county, Tex., on the morning of Dec. 15th, of pneumonia, Mr. Geo. H.. Allen, aged 40 years. Mr. Allen was born in Colorado county July 8, 1853. He was married to Miss Allee Jackson, daughter of Hon. D. W. Jackson, about the year ‘82. He served as marshal of this city for some time, and gave the utmost satisfaction in that capacity. He was a big-hearted, generous gentleman, "true as steel" to his friends, and a man possessing a large circle of friends wherever known. A heart-broken wife and five little children survive him. His remains were brought to this city last Sunday morning, and at 2 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day were laid to rest in the Odd Fellows' cemetery, Messrs. Otto Goeth, Geo. Herder, W. A. Baar, Boyce McCormick, Geo. T. Holman and A. F. Rose acting as pall bearers, a large concourse of bereaved relatives and friends witnessing the last sad rites, which were performed by Elder J. J. Cramer. Our deepest sympathy is extended the grief-stricken ones in the dark hour of gloom.
