FULWOOD,
Josephine
Young Brides Sad Death
A happy romance of six weeks of wedded life was shattered Tuesday September 14th when Mrs.
Teddy Fulwood died at the county hospital of an acute attack of diabetes while her husband
wandered through the outlying districts of Globe in an apparently demented condition.
Fulwood was married just six weeks ago to Miss Josephine Gibbs of Safford. The brides parents
live about six miles from Safford and about a week ago she left to visit them. While at the ranch
she contracted a severe cold. With it came a return of an attack of diabetes from which she had
suffered some time before. When she returned to Globe Saturday night her condition was so
serious that she could not walk to her home. Fulwood's father sat up with the young woman
during the early part of the night. At about midnight he called upon Teddy to take up the vigil.
When he went to the room shortly after daybreak Sunday morning the young man had
disappeared. Mrs. Fulwood was taken to the county hospital where in a private ward she
received the best of care. Medical aid was unavailing however and she died at 300 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon. Fulwood was found in a demented condition near Roosevelt Wednesday
afternoon and was brought to Globe Thursday.
