Notes for Edward Edwin NALL

v When Papa Nall was 9 years old his father died, and at the age of 12 his mother died. I recall hearing that the children were split up and sent to different relatives to live. I do know that Papa at one time was in Arizona with an Aunt Lou.

At some point in his young life, Papa lived in Texas, possibly Gainesville or Sherman. It was there that he and Mama met and married. They moved around a bit as indicated by where their children were born.

When he moved his family to Waurika in 1906, he was engaged in the oil business and co-owned a bank. Later he partnered with Charles Stuard to build the Stuard-Nall Hotel on north Main in Waurika.

The following articles are from the Waurika News-Democrat:

v “While coming into Waurika from northwest of town, Joe Mitchell, an oil man headquartering at the Stuard Hotel, E. E. Nall and O. P. Gant’s boy sustained slight injuries when the car, driven by Mitchell, turned turtle. The accident happened as they were turning the corner north of the Cow Creek bridge and is accredited to a little too much speed (20 miles an hour).”

v E. E. NALL

E. E. Nall, who suffered a stroke of paralysis Friday, March 12, and was taken to a sanitarium at Sherman, Texas, succumbed to the attack Sunday of this week.

It will be remembered that Mr. Nall was engaged in setting out trees when he suffered the stroke. He was immediately taken home and medical aid summoned, and improved sufficiently to be taken to Sherman, Texas. His entire left side was affected, even causing temporary mental derangement and loss of speech. At Sherman he was under the care of his brother, Dr. R. B. Nall, but the shock proved too severe and medical skill was without avail insofar as recovery was concerned.

The remains were shipped to Waurika Tuesday morning and funeral services were conducted at the family home that afternoon by Rev. J. O. Peterson, pastor of the Methodist church. Burial took place at the Waurika cemetery at 4 o’clock. The immense floral offerings and the large concourse of friends that followed the remains to their last resting place bore evidence of the fact that immediate members of the family are not the only ones who mourn his untimely demise.

Mr. Nall was only 42 years of age, and the entire community regrets the fact that he should depart from his loved ones so early in life. He was one of the city’s biggest property owners, and never did the opportunity present itself that he was not found an aggressive and conservative booster for the town.

Among the immediate relatives surviving are a wife and six children residing in Waurika; three brothers, Dr. R. B., Carl and Arthur Nall of Sherman, (the remaining part of the article was lost).

CARD OF THANKS

We take this means of thanking the people of Waurika who were so kind to us in the burial of our husband, father and brother and especially are we thankful for the beautiful floral offerings.

Mrs. E. E. Nall and children, Dr. R. B. Nall Carl Nall
