CAUS Congestion of the Liver
THOMAS JEFFERSON TIPTON OBITUARY" Died at his residence 12 miles north of Rusk, Mr. Tom Tipton, on the 7th of October. (1883), 48 min. past 3 p.m. He died of congestion of the liver, stomach and intestines, combined with inflamation of the left lung. This transtit from life to death was very rapid, being confined to his bed only six days. I attend3ed him with my friend, Dr. H. Cooper, --son-in law of the deceased; five days and nights. We permitted nothing that could be of any avail to be left undone.
"We so vigilantly watched our esteemed friend, in his suffering, that he scarcely made maneuver or uttered a groan, but what was seen or heard by one or the other of us. By our combined medical skill westrived to relieve our suffering patient. We could not bear the idea of giving him up, for we most devoted felt that a kind Providence might regard our effords, and thereby restore him to physicial strength again. But the hand of desease was too strong for us, our effords unavailing, the victory lost, the scene of life finally closed in death, and his spirit returned to God who gave it.
"Our community can now most sadly mourn the loss of one of the noblest citizens that ever resided in it. In life, a friend, a man upright, just and correct.
" he maintained a good will for every fellow being. He loved his wife, his children, his neighborns and friends. He so lived in life, that in death he had no fears. He knew that his soul was worthy and that it would be happily blessed by the favor of God.
"Mr Tipton leaves a good wife and several children to lament his departure, but their temporary separation with him is all right with God; for in the Celestial Kingdom, where the terrestrial woss of this life are no longer remembered; they will meet with him again.G. F. Fullerton M. D.
