who died Saturday morning at 5:00, were held Sunday afternoon at 1:00 
o'clock at the home in Campton with Rev. Sam Sloan, pastor of the

Mr. Rose suffered a heart attack Thrusday morning at 6:00 o'clock and 
his family was summoned.

He seemed to be improving and was able to talk until a few minutes 
before his death which was caused by a ______ attack Saturday morning.

The Rose family had sold their property in Campton and had all the 
furnishings except one load moved to their new home near Cincinnati.  Mr. 
Rose had stayed here to make final arrangements.

Mr. Rose, son of the late Jeff M. and Sarah Rose, was born August 17, 
1879 at Stillwater.

When a young man, Mr. Rose went to Oklahoma to visit an uncle.  There 
he met and married Miss Ruth Crutchfield in 1906.

He served as sheriff in Oklahoma before returning to Wolfe County.

He was elected Jailor of Wolfe county in 1921 and was re-elected for 
four years when his term expired.

The large floral offering banking the room and many friends attended the 
funeral showed the esteem for Mort who always had a cheery greeting for 
everyone.

Mrs. Lewis De Burk and Mrs. Herman Hubbard of Covington; one son, 
Charles, who was recently discharged from the army and lives with his parents,

of Hearne Funeral Home of Stanton.

(Note: I didn't get the date of this paper, it was in the fall of 1945.  I 
looked in the Death Index and found a John M. Rose who died Oct. 27, 1945 
Wolfe county, which could be this person.)
