General Notes: Husband - Samford Halcom Phillips
My grandparents Sam and Carrie Phillips are buried at Zion Hill just
off the DeLeon highway, probably about half way between Comanche and
DeLeon. Jefferson Davis Phillips is also buried there. I don't know
if you heard the story about how my grandfather died. They lived just
outside DeLeon, probably about five miles. December 5, 1935, he was
walking to Comanche to try to find work. He had been unemployed for
awhile and it was nearing Christmas time. They were finding it harder
and harder to feed their kids. Daddy was married, for a year at that
time. I guess the rest were at home. Anyway, he got as far as Van
Dyke, and just as he was about to cross the Rush Creek (I believe
that was the name of the creek) bridge, he was hit by a cattle truck.
The truck did not stop. His body was found in the creek bed, by some
kids walking home from school that afternoon. They first saw his hat
on the bridge. One of the kids knew him and remarked that that looked
like his hat. They looked down into the creek bed and saw his body.
The truck driver stopped in San Saba to have his headlight fixed.
That's when he was caught by the law. He said he dozed off, and when
he hit something, he thought it was probably some kind of animal and
did not stop. The only good thing that came out of it, was the fact
that his insurance helped Granny to feed and clothe her children for
a while longer. Mother and Daddy moved in with her to help her with
the other kids. I'm not sure how long they stayed. After grandpa was
killed, some of the other kids got tired of taking care of Grandpa
Jeff,(Jefferson Davis Phillips), and brought him to granny's house
and dumped him out for her to take care of, as though she needed that
in addition to all of her kids. Anyway she took care of him until his
death, which I believe was in 1938. He is buried beside Granny and
Grandpa at Zion Hill. I guess no one could afford to take him to be
buried with his wife in Arkansas.
