Henry Brigance, nearly seventy -four years old fell dead at 5:25 p.m. yeasterda on the steps o f Dr. W.N. Davidson's home at 725 East Maple wherehe had called to ak for work. None of the Davidson family were at home at the time and the man's fall was seen by John Wilson Jr.' six year old son of Mr. & Mrs. V. W. Wilson of 731 East maple.The little boy ran into the house and told his mother of the man's fall and she called Dr.Davidson's office.. Soon a crowd gathered. The man was found to have died of acute dilatation of the heart. Mrs. Davidson recongnized him as a man who called at the house last week and whom she told to return later that she may have something for him to do. Mr. Brigance had completed some work in a nearby yard and apparently laid his tools down and mounted the steps when he fell just in front of the door.

The Reliques of Rives indicates that Ada Bell died in childhood but this was apparently in error since we have information from a family member about her family. She is shown as age 9 on the 1880 census but the 1900 Census gives a birthdate of 1868. The 1910 Census gives her age as 39.
Ada Bell later married her daughter Elizabeth's husband Charles Self in about 1909. In 1910, she is shown as Ada Self, the wife of Charles Self. Also in the home are William, James Melvin and Betty Louella. The Census shows they have been married less than a year. The 1910 Census shows she has had 5 children with 4 living. In 1920 she and her son, Jackson (Jack) self are found living with her son, William Cobb. In 1930, she is found living with her son, James M. Cobb and family, not far from her son William Thomas Cobb and Jackson C. Self.

They had the following children:
7452 F i Elizabeth Cobb 1 was born 2 in Apr 1886 in Texas. She died before 1910.
It is possible that "Lizzie" who appears as a daughter on the 1900 Cenus is not the same as Elizabeth who married Charlie Self.Elizabeth married Charles Self 1 after 1900. Charles was born 2 in 1878 in Oklahoma.
Apparently there were no surviving children of this marriage since the only children in the home in 1910 were the Cobb children.7453 M ii William Thomas Cobb was born on 8 Feb 1888. He died in Jun 1957. 7454 F iii Mary Cobb 1 was born 2 in Jan 1890 in Texas.

Ada married (2) Charles Self 1 about 1910. Charles was born 2 in 1878 in Oklahoma.
Apparently there were no surviving children of this marriage since the only children in the home in 1910 were the Cobb children.
