#46780 Reed Allison ( Austin Ray AllisonDavid Austin AllisonArchibald AllisonDavid AllisonArchibald AllisonArchibald Allison )

Reed was born 1910. He died 1922.

Reed was killed by an angry bull when he was 12 years old. There was to be a band concert near Woodward in the afternoon. Reed's father told Reed and his brother, Archibald, that they could go to the concert if they got their chores done.

The boys mounted their horses and went to the field to bring in the cattle. The bull there started giving them trouble and the boys dismounted to round him up. The bull turned on them and tossed Archibald over the fence, then gored and trampled Reed. When their father arrived, he found Archibald unconscious and Reed dead.
