McKinney Weekly Democrat Gazette, July 27, 1916
Miss Laura R. Bryan, daughter of the late Louis Bryan, died at the home of her aunt, Mrs. Jennie Hays, at Rice, Navarro county, Monday. The burial was at Big Spring cemetery, three miles southeast of Plano Tuesday afternoon, the service conducted by Rev. C. I. Dickey of Ferris, Texas.
About two weeks ago she was burned very seriously by the explosion of oil in a cook stove she was lighting. She had grown much better and had become able to sit up when attacked with illness which in conjunction with her former injuries proved fatal. The deceased was reared at Plano and lived with her uncle Robert Bryan, three miles north of the city, being an orphan. She belonged to a connection of old settlers, being a granddaughter of William Turner, an early settler of the Plano section. She was much beloved and her death is a sad bereavement to relatives and friends. – Plano Star-Courier.
