Died at the Dinner Table

Sherman, Tex., Sep 4 - To-day at the dinner table Ephraim Carpenter, aged 86, expired suddenly and without a struggle. He had just finished the "grace", as had been his custom for many years, and had taken a single mouthful of food when he gently laid down and was dead before those nearest him could render the last assistance. He was weak from recent illness which had preyed heavily upon his shattered constitution. He resided with his son, Butler Carpenter, three miles West of the city.
