J. H. Bramham Dead
The sad news reached here yesterday morning announcing the death of Mr. J. H. Bramham, an old veteran, which occurred at the home of his son, J. S. Bramham, at Goliad on Wednesday night at 10 o'clock. Mr. Bramham was born in Albemarle county, Virginia, in May 1827 and has traveled down life's Pilgrim pathway for more than four score years. Mr. Bramham spent his boyhood days in his native country and at the close of the war came to Texas where he lived the remainder of his life. In his young days he professed religion of the Christian faith, and he was a true and devoted christian to the last. He was a men above the average intellect, a shrewd business man until in his declining years he lost his eyesight and had the misfortune to be in an accident which left him almost an invalid for the past six years. Ten children survive him, his wife having died last August.

His remains arrived here this morning one the train and were carried to the Christian church where services were held and from there the funeral cortege was followed to the city cemetery by a large number of sorrowing relatives and friends where the remains were tenderly laid to rest. THE HERALD tenders its sympathy and condolence to the bereaved in their time of affliction.
