Bio
ARLINGTON JOURNAL THURSDAY---OCTOBER 3, 1907 A GOOD CITIZEN GONE. Saturday evening about 4 o'clock John Carter, aged 57 years, was caught in the saws of the gin at the North Texas gin, and so horribly mangled that he died within a few minutes. Mr. Carter was a brother of Rev. G.T. Carter, who has been manager of the gin for many years. He leaves a wife, 3 married daughters, 2 married sons and a single son, and many other relatives to mourn his loss. As for friends he had many and it is said that he never had an enemy in his life. He had been a member of the Baptist church for over 40 years, and lived a life that exemplified the beauties of his profession. In order that the children some of whom lived at distant points might all be present at the burial, the remains were held over until Monday. Funeral services were held by Rev. A.S. Hall, pastor of the Baptist church at this place, and Rev. W.D. Hammack of Crandall, a former pastor and special friend of the dead man; after which the remains were followed to their last resting place by a large concourse of friends, and gently laid to rest in beautiful Arlington cemetery.
