Death Abruptly Ends Friendship Of Tivo Old Men
Jasper N. Ward. 00, lay tn his bed at the Springfield Baptist hospital this morning, and told the atmiple Hory of a beautiful friendship be- tween two men, a Lifelong comrade- stifp that was abruptly terminated
00, who had been watching at the bedside of Mr. . Ward for three weeks, foll dead of a heart attack.' Conscious only of a dull ache La his heart, Mr. Ward talked quety of his friend.
. "He wasmy cousin, you know. but to me fe was closer even than
a brother. He was the best friend - I ever had."
Since Mr. Ward entered the hos- pital here from his home near Hart- ville three weeks ago for an appen- dioftis operation, Newton who weem- ed to be to the best of health, had been his almost constant compan- tod' At first be spent the entire day et' the hospital and made the long drive bompe each night, but after the "operation when the patient Was move il, he stayed all night long. helping the special purse, Since the went off duty last Monday he had'
slept on a cot in the room, caring for the slightest need of his friend. -
The nurses declare- . that the friendship was one of the most beautiful they have ever seen. "The. two old men, exactly the same age, talked by- the hour." -they said. "There was never a cross word, only perfect understanding, apparent b- -tween them."
They both were continually .00- lleltous about the other's welfare. according to those in attendance. and last night just before he died. Mr. Newton was planning bhw he could get his cousin home without. hurting him. He had often helped plan for the patient's tray. "I know just what Jasper likes," he would say.
The survivor In the long com- radestilp wis eager to ton of his friend's life, always ready to Inject Bottle tale about his kindness or good nature. "It somehow beips te talk about him," Mr. Ward declared. The two men were born in adja- cent, homesteads. three-quarter of # mathe spart. in October, 1868. just eight days apart. Their marly child- hood was spent In those farm homes, that right miles west of Bytville 00 rural route : where they could "hear each other whist- Un' and singin'," even when being together was Impossible.
-
" We started to school together , when we were six. years old." Mr. Ward explained. "down at the New- ton school. Lots of times we would -
sit together, and study together. What he knew I knew, and the other way 'round. Funny thing. I've still got a scar on my head where he hit me with a rock one time dur- Ing receas, but he didn't mean to. to I didn't care "
They both started farming after finishing school, and often did their courtin' " together.
"Wash married my cousin when he was 19, but I didn't get married for four years more. We stayed friends just the same, though." The first time the two were ever sep- arated for any lengtht of time was about 10 years later, when Ward got a job at Beymour, but he didn't stay long, and .when he went back to the farm, he built a house that was even nearer Newton's than the other bed been.
About 15 years ago Newton went to Muskogee, Okla., where he lived until be and his wife were seper- ated five years ago, and he return- ed to the old home near Hartville to live with his father, 83, and his Invalid sister. That was the begin- ning of an even desper . friendship between the two men, Mr. Ward
"Why, Wash used to come by ) 'y house avery day on his way to the store at Odin. It was really hla home and he WAR RA good a father to my children as I am. They loved him better than most anybody. No. neither one of us had ever been clear down and out, but if there ever was anything one of us could do Ior the other. we did It. Can't you un- derstand We were just like one. Wash and mel" The old man could not keep a few leare out nf his eyes. "I can't imagine things without him."
Funeral services for Mr. Newton will be held Saturday afternoon at Newton cemetery at Od'n und - the direction of W. L. Starne. - 6 1a Carryet IF We father and als aster. than Xvy Newton at the home pides, one con. 'Ass, Tarklo, 'fc. and two daughtere. Mamle Jo and Garnie. of Tulsa, Okla.
