"Took an Active Part in Many Movements of Importance—Was an ex-Confederate.
"William Porter Cochran, for more than sixty years resident in Dallas County, died yesterday morning at 6 o'clock at his home near Cochran's Chapel and will be buried in the old cemetery there this afternoon at 2 o'clock.
"Mr. Cochran was a member of a large and influential family of this county and section and it is expected that the funeral will be the occasion for the gathering of friends from every department of life in the city and county.
"Born near Springfield, Mo., Jan. 24, 1841, to William and Nancy J. Cochran, he came as a child to Texas with his parents in 1843 and settled at Farmers Branch. Twelve years later he removed to the place which has since that time been his home.
"Belonging to the Methodist Church and to the Masonic fraternity, Mr. Cochran will be buried under the auspices of those organizations. Revs. W. H. Hughes, a life-long friend; O. S. Thomas, long intimate with him, and W. H. Adams, pastor of the chapel; James A. Smith Lodge No. 395 of Farmers Branch, the Masonic body with which he was connected, will consign the body to the grave.
"At the outbreak of the war between the States Mr. Cochran, though still a youth, enlisted in Lafayette Smith's company, Ross' brigade, Sixth Texas Cavalry, and in that command he served through the four years of the war. Most of the service was on the eastern side of the Mississippi. He has been a member of Sterling Price Camp, United Confederate Veterans, since its organization.
"Accepting the results of the war and devoting himself to the pursuits of peace, Mr. Cochran was married in 1867 to Miss Amanda Lawrence of Hill County. To them were born these children, who with the widow survive: John D. Cochran, now Superintendent of Public Instruction in this county; Mrs. Nannie J. Brown, Mary A. Cochran, Arch Cochran, J. P. Cochran, Willie Cochran and Ada Cochran. There are three grandchildren. His three brothers reside in this State. They are: John H., now residing in the Panhandle and once candidate for Governor of the State; Dr. A. M. Cochran, once candidate for Governor on the Republican ticket, and J. M. Cochran, County Commissioner of Dallas County. Mr. Cochran always took an active part in all things with which he was connected. He was a working Mason, an earnest Christian and throughout his life a Democrat. It was his boast that he had never failed to vote his convictions in the battles of this party.
"Many of the business men and county officials have announced their intention of attending the funeral today. It is expected that from all parts of the county the relatives and friends of the well-loved man will gather."23 - Scrapbook*: "HUNDREDS AT FUNERAL
"MANY ATTEND LAST SAD RITES OVER THE REMAINS OF WILLIAM PORTER COCHRAN.
"SERVICES IN THE OLD CHAPEL
"Many Elaborate Floral Designs Are Sent from Over Country [sic]—Prominent Persons Present.
Hundreds of persons from all parts of the county attended the funeral yesterday of William Porter Cochran. The services were held at Cochran's Chapel, of which the family are members, and were conducted by ministers of the Methodist Church. The burial rites were performed by the Masonic fraternity. Through many years Mr. Cochran had been a member of both these organizations. Many men went out from Dallas to attend the funeral and there were some from other parts of the State.
"At the church the services were conducted by Rev. O. S. Thomas of Terrell, long time a friend and many years pastor of Mr. Cochran. He was assisted by Revs. W. H. Stephens of Grand Prairie, W. H. Hughes of Dallas and G. M. Adams, pastor of the chapel. Each of these men paid his tribute to the sterling worth and the noble character of Mr. Cochran and many incidents were cited to show the goodness of his heart and the purity of his life.
From the church to the cemetery the casket was attended by the Masonic pallbearers, Arthur Scott, Ewing Buchanan, John Hughes, James H. Smith, Alex Cockrell and A. W. Campbell. James A. Smith Lodge of Farmers Branch, Mr. Cochran's connection with Masonry for a number of years, was in charge of the burial.
"Floral designs were elaborate and numerous and came from every part of the county. The Masonic rites were led by Alex Cockrell, A. W. Campbell and J. E. Floyd of Dallas.
"Among the county officials who attended the funeral were: Judge Thomas F. Nash, Judge Hiram F. Lively, School Superintendent John D. Cochran, Commissioner J. M. Cochran, Tax Collector Henry H. Jacoby, County Clerk Frank R. Shanks, Justice of the Peace M. C. Cullen and Assistant Auditor W. Hughes Oliver."24 - Note*: He was educated at McKenzie College in Red River County, Texas. He enlisted in the Confederate Army in 1861 and served in Company C, Sixth Texas Cavalry, until the end of the Civil War after seeing battle at Pea Ridge, Corinth, Inks, Holly Springs, and Atlanta. He lived on the family homestead north of Dallas, was a member of nearby Cochran Chapel Methodist Church, and was an active Democrat and District Deputy Grand Master in the Masonic Order. He and Amanda had nine children. From an 1892 biography: "Mr. Cochran has seen the full growth and development of Dallas from a cabin to a city of about 40,000 inhabitants, and has always taken an active interest in everything for its good and aided in all public enterprises."25
