JUDGE J. A. L. WOLFE
Judge J. A. L. Wolfe prominent member of the Sherman bar has expired suddenly at his home, 1002 South Crockett Street at 1:05 Tuesday afternoon, shortly after arriving at home for lunch.
Judge Wolfe left his office in the Commercial National Bank building at 12:30 o'clock Tuesday, in his apparent usual good health, after attending to his customary amount of business during Tuesday forenoon. Upon reaching home, however, Judge Wolfe stated to members of his family that he did not care for lunch, and lay down upon a couch to rest. His son-in-law, Dr. Wilbur Carter, was in the room with him and noticed him expiring. He died, however, without calling to any member of the family, and apparently with ease. Heart trouble with which Judge Wolfe had suffered in the recent past, necessitating an absence for a time from his office last year, was given as the cause of death.
Judge Wolfe was a native of Missouri, being born near Boonville. He had lived in Sherman for the past thirty-three years, coming here from McKinney where he first entered the practice of law. His early Texas home was at Denton, were he was brought by his parents at the age of four years. His education was inn Texas. he graduated from Trinity University, Waxahachie.
SUCCESSFUL IN BUSINESS
Judge Wolfe's activities extended out of the purely legal. Through his long connection as one of the leading bar members of Grayson County and his business ability, he had achieved success in a financial way, and at the time of his death he was president of the Sherman Loan & Trust Co., president of the Gordonville and Hagerman banks, a director in the Grayson Building & Loan Company, and a director in the Commercial National Bank, of Sherman. He was general counsel for the Texas State Medical Association. He was an elder in the Central Presbyterian Church of Sherman, one of the trustees of its properties, and had held connection with the church outside the local congregational affairs.
Judge Wolfe is survived by his wife, Mrs. Sallie Wolfe, and by one daughter, Mrs. Wilbur Carter of Sherman.
Funeral arrangements owing to the suddenness of the demise, had not been made Tuesday afternoon.
When the news of Judge Wolfe's death was spread throughout the city, many expressions of sorrow and regret were heard.
