Obituary for Sarah Cadenhead...
Mrs. S.A. Cadenhead died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J.H. Dunn ten miles north of Plainview at ten o'clock Wednesday morning. Mrs. Cadenhead was born in Comanche County, Texas, February 17th, 1845. Her husband who died 21 years ago was a Confederate veteran and old time Indian fighter. Mrs. Cadenhead used to relate many thrilling experiences that occurred in the early days. Upon one occasion when attacked by Indians, she hid her baby in a brush pile and concealed herself in the branches of a tree where she was forced to remain until morning. After prowling about all night, the Indians left without discovering their hiding places. Mrs. Cadenhead was the mother of twelve children, eight of whom are now living. The funeral services will be held at Kress tomorrow afternoon and internment will be made in Kress Cemetery under the direction of Garner Brothers.
