Sunday night, Mrs. Eva E. Chenowth died at her home at 1223 Flanders. For 50 years she had been active in the work of the Baptist Church and was a charter member of the Western Heights Church.
Aside from her family, that church was her one great interest.

Mr. Chenowth with his brothers, Jeff and S. C., engaged in the grain business in Dallas.
In recent years children and old friends of the family helped Mrs. Chenowth plan the November 26 birthday parties to which she looked forward annually.
Surviving are a son, E. B. Chenowith of Dallas; three daughters, Mrs. J. M. Dunlap of Dallas, Mrs. W. L. Wilmeth of Washington, and Mrs. F. T. Horner of Los Angeles, Calif.; three sisters, Miss Lanora Deen and Miss Clara Deen of Dallas, and Mrs. B. L. Crist of Floridatown, Fla.; two brothers, R. L. Deen and C. J. Deen; seven grandchildren; and one great-grandchild.
