H.E. WOOD DIES
IN FORT WORTH
H.E. Wood, 83-year-old Southwestern pioneer, cowman, farmer and rancher, died yesterday at Fort Worth, Texas, following an illness of three months. Wood, who was visiting his daughter, Mrs. Sam Graves of Fort Worth at the time of his death, had made his home in Carlsbad on the South Highway for the last 30 years.
Besides his daughter Mrs. Graves, Wood is survived by another daughter, Mrs. Susan Groane of San Francisco and two sons, Frank Wood of Fort Worth and Tom Wood of Carlsbad.
The body will arrive in Carlsbad by train tomorrow morning and his relatives from Fort Worth are driving to Carlsbad. His son, Frank Wood, is confined to the St. Francis Hospital for several days, and probably will not be able to attend the funeral, Mrs. W.C. Bates, Wood's sister-in-law, said today.
Services will be conducted at the West Funeral Home at 10 o'clock Friday morning by the Rev. L.B. Trone of the Methodist Church. Burial will be in the Carlsbad Cemetery where Wood's wife, who died January 23, 1943, is buried.
Honorary pallbearers are Wayne Cowdon, Armon E. Birdwell, Charles F. Montgomery, Richard Westaway, Bill High and George Skinner.
Wood, who was born in Missouri on December 24, 1862, came to Texas when he was 13 years old. After several years as a cowboy, he came to Lovington in Lea County where he stayed for ten years farming and ranching. Right after World War I, he came to Carlsbad to make his home.
