The Report of Death filed in The County Clerk's office of Jones Co., TX., states that F. L. Alltop died Nov. 25, 1904, at 7:00 pm
He was a white male of unknown age. His residence was in Anson, TX., and the place of death was City Hall, Stamford, TX. Cause of death is recorded as Epilepsy.

The News Paper at the time of death referred to him as L Alltop, His death certificate states his name as F L Alltop about 50 years old. . Research indicates he may have been Frederick Louis Alltop born in 1853 in Ohio and was on the 1900 census in Brevard Co., Florida and was single.

Last Friday evening about 5 o'clock .L. Alltop drove Spide William's cotton freight wagon from Anson into the Stamford cotton yard, and immediately on getting off the wagon, he was taken with an epileptic fit. The marshall was called, and in the absence of the city physician, Dr. Sledge, he called Dr. McReynolds. Then, Mr. Flournoy, had the man moved to the city hall, as it was the only place open to him. Drs. Sledge and Shell came about this time, and everything possible, was done, but he died about 7 o'clock. Nothing at all is known of the man's history prior to his coming to Anson a few weeks ago. He was about 50 years of age and seems to have been a sailor from the tattooing on his arm.

He was buried in the Stamford cemetery at the county's expense.
