Bryan Obituary was printed December 1917; Headstone says 1918. Transcription of obituary from The Bryan Daily Eagle and Pilot, Thursday, 27 Dec. Death of Mrs. A. S. Bullock on Monday Mrs. A. S. Bullock died at the family home in the Steep Hollow community, Monday, December 24, at noon, after a long illnesss. Everything possible had been done for her through the long weeks of her illness but to no avail, and for some time it was known that her death was only a matter of days. This foreknowledge, however, did not assuage the grief of her loved ones, further than the knowledge of having ministered to her in every way possible during her last days and hours. Mrs. Bullock was Miss Mary Edwina Newman, a native of Louisiana. She came to Brazos county with her father's family when a young lady and was married to A. S. Bullock more than 30 years ago. Because of the condition of her health, she and her husband moved to Maverick , Jones county, many years ago, later going to San Angelo, where they resided untill recent years when they returned to Brazos county to again make this their home. Mrs. Bullock was converted and joined the Baptist church when a girl and all her life was a faithful , consecrated christian. During her long illness, extending through practically thirty years, she bore her suffering with a Christian fortitude that can come only through an unfaltering trust in God. As the minister said at her funeral, her life was an inspiration to all. She is survived by her husband and six children, viz: Homer Bullock, Colorado City; Robert Bullock, San Angelo; Mrs. Bertha Robertson, El Paso; Mrs. John Riley, Reliance; Mrs. Emma Beal, Prospect; and Charley Bullock, Steep Hollow. The sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved ones in their dark hour of sorrow. The funeral was held Christmas day at Steep Hollow cemetery, the services being conducted by Rev. C. E. Bullock, Rev. J. M. Bullock and Dr. M. E. Weaver. A very large number of people were present to pay her their last tribute of respect.
