Mr. J. C. Laney of Hico, Texas, formerly of this county, sends the following clipping from the Hico News-Review regarding the death of his half brother, a native of this county:
It was with sincere sorrow that the many friends of Henry Wolfe of Salem heard of his death, which occurred in Kerrville, where he had gone in an effort to recuperate his health, at 2:30 o'clock Sunday morning. Mr. Wolfe had been ill for about three months, and had been in Kerrville since March 1st. His son, Sam Wolfe, was with him when the end came, in fact accompanied him to Kerrville, and had been there since that time. Mr. Wolfe's death was caused by tuberculosis of the bowels.
He was one of the most popular men in this entire section, the writer having heard a man remark a few days before his death, that if he had an enemy in the world he probably knew nothing of it. He was in fact an ideal citizen, practicing the golden rule in his daily walk, and this section has sustained a great loss in his death. He was 48 years of age and is survived by his wife and ten children.
The remains passed through the city Monday afternoon to Clairette, where the funeral took place Monday afternoon, the ceremony being conducted by Rev. Mr. Sewell of the Methodist church, of which Mr. Wolfe was a consistent member. He was also a member of the Woodmen. His funeral was attended by a large concourse of relatives and friends, who during his 33 years residence in this section had learned to love and admire him for his many manly traits of character, and who gathered on this occasion.
