DCert | Happy Herald | Happy, TX |
| Gerhard Achfelt, 32, succumbed to a snake bite while alone in his field Tuesday morning. Mr. Achfelt had left his home early in the morning to do some work in the field, and his wife, returning to her home late in the evening, found that the noon-day meal she had prepared for him was untouched. She summoned neighbors, who began a search. About 7 p.m. the body was found between the place where he had been working and the house. Indications were that he had made an effort to reach the house, after being bitten on the leg by a poisonous snake. The ground where the body was found showed that he had evidently died a very painful death. His leg had been bound by binder twine above the wound, but this did not prevent the spreading of the poison, as doctors say the would was in a main artery, causing the rapid spread of the poison. Achfelt, who had been in this country only about three years, coming from Germany, was married, and his wife and one baby girl survive him. He was a son-in-law of Ludwig Irlbeck, who lives southeast of Happy. His home was located four miles south of Happy. Funeral services were held at 9 o’clock Thursday morning, and interment made in the Nazareth Catholic Cemetery.Also See: Findagrave |

| H. W. Armstrong, pioneer Swisher County farmer, passed away at his home in Happy Tuesday morning at 3:00 o’clock. Coming to this country in 1891, Mr. Armstrong held the distinction of being one of the earliest settlers of Swisher County. With the closest railroad nearly 60 miles away, he settled with his family near where Tulia now is before the county was organized. Born in Alabama in 1853, he moved to Tennessee during the Civil War. Later he came to Texas with the westward movement in 1875, settling at Dallas which was then a small town. The urge to go still farther west brought him, with his family, to Jack County in the early 80′s and to SwisherCountyin 1891. Following the late George Cayler and Andy Bivins, both prominent pioneers, he bought the farm near Tulia where he lived until 1926 when he moved to Happy. Here he lived until his death. While living at Dallas, he was married to MISS TEXIE VORHIES who has shared his fortunes for 56 years, eleven children being born to this union. Besides his widow, Mrs. H. W Armstrong, Happy, he is survived by eight children: Mrs. Lula Ward, and Mrs. Viola Loftin of Tulia; Mrs. John Lemmons and Mrs. Eva Curb of Happy; Jim, Duncan, AZ; Harrison, Moriarty, NM; W. E., Happy; and Fred, Tulia. Funeral services were held from the Presbyterian Church, Tulia, Wednesday at 2:30 P.M. with interment in Rose Hill Cemetery. Rev. E. B. Fincher of Amarillo officiated. Pallbearers were Joe Cantrell, G. G. Hutchinson, Jim Cleveland, Murray Evans, John Burgess and Fletcher Rogers. ‑ from The Tulia Herald. | ||||
