Waxahachie Enterprise, Feb. 5, 1904

The friends of Daniel were surprised Monday morning to learn of his death Sunday night.  For a few daysh e had been suffering with what was thought to be la grippe, but on Saturday night  it developed that he was in a critcal condition from acute Bright's disease from which he died last night a little after 10 o'clock.  Everything that friends, neighbors and a faithful physician coudl do was done, but the grim disease claimed bob Daniel as its victim.

Mr. Daniel had been liviing  in Waxahachie only a few months, having brought his family here to educate his children.  He was a prosperous farmer in the eastern part of the count yand was reared in Ellis County, son of Jmaes Daniel, a much respected citizen of the Union Hill neighborhood.

His wife was Miss Victoria Pearson who lived in the same neighborhood.  a man loved and respected by those who knew him has gone from our midst.  His funeral services were held at the family residence at 9 a.m. Monday with interment at Union Hill in the afternoon.
