Thelsublect Of these remarks died at
midnight Saturday, after lingering
illness from consumption. He was
fifty-two yeas old.
BY reputation he was probably the
best known business man in Marion
county. He was born in Killarney,
Ireland, and came to America when
eighteen years Of age, and shortly af-
terward became a foreman of men
employed in government works, inn
proving the water courses of the coun-
try, notably on the "MuscIe Shoals" OF
the Tennessee, etc.
After following this business for ten
years his health became impaired, he
went to Albany, n. Y, and embarked
In business for himself, but the winter
climate proving too severe for his sys-
tenn, he pulled up stakes and came to
Florida in August 1882, and with less
than 81, 900, in a modest and unassum-
ing way, began the grocery business
in a wooden structure near where the
French bakery now stands on North
Main street. With strict attention to
business, and by practicing the most
rigid economy, his small capital be-
gan to accumulate, and Mr.. Mccarthy,
who did almost strictly cash ousi-
ness, began discounting all his pur-
chases, and by the uniform low price
at which he sold his merchandise,
soon built up a large and lucrative
trade, so that at his death his estate
was supposed to have been worth at
least $4,000.
The deceased was so welded to his
business that he was seldom seen out
side of his storeroom, so absorbed was
he in it that the ruling passion was
strong In death, for the last words
spoken by him to his brother Daniel,
who had charge of his business, wish
ing to know II he had cash enough to
meet 200 barrel sugar bill that was
looked for Monday, and when assured
he had, he seemed satisfied, folded his
hands and expired.
Mr.. McCarthy's reputation in trade
was synonymous with cash payments,
and disposing of goods at the lowest
possible margin of profits He was
the father Of that system in Ocala,
and leading business man remark
ing that the uniformly low price at
which he sold goods in his line so eff
fected competition that he saved to
the consumers Of Marion county at
least $4,000 year.
He was buried i'm conformity with
the services Of the Catholic church, of
which he was devoted and faithful
member, Father O'Riley officiating.
The services were held at the chapel,
which was filed with the friends of
the deceased.
He leaves wife and two girls, aged
ten and twelve years, respectively, the
latter, who were attending the Catho-
lie school at San Antonia, were
brought up by Sister Mary Grace.
Mr.. Mccarthy had been in poor
health for the last few years, and %
several occasions his life was despaired
Of, but his tenacity of will power put
him on his feet again.
Tuesday Judge w. s. Bullock put
on record deeds executed several
months ago by John McConathy, maxi
the Judge executor of his estate. and
giving him full power to direct and
conduct same until 1904, as his best
judgment dictates.
The grocery business will be contin-
ued by Mr.. Daniel Mccarthy.

A Resident of Thi. City for q Number
of Years.

The death early yesterday morning at his
residence. IS B street northeast, of Mr..
Summer H. Bodfsh brought to close life
which was marked by much generous
friendship and manly endeavor. Death
came after struggle which lasted for over
eight months. and which was marked by
the same courageous spirit which signalized
his career as a soldier. The disease which
finally ended his life sr.med to be the re-
suit of some disordered condition of the
liver and also of the kidneys. 1t was a
case that seemed to defy the skill of doc
tors. and in spite of the best medical atten-
ton. the change of climate. which involved
trip during the winter to Florida, and
the devoted and unremitting care of his
wife he gradually sank away.
Almost the last thought he uttered be-
fore closing his eyes in death was an ex-
preston OF appreciation for the kindness
of which he had been the recipient during
his long illness, and he expressed the wish
that he could live so that he could show
his friends his gratitude. The funeral ser
vices Will be held tomorrow afternoon at 3
O'Clock at his late residence and the inter-
ment will be at Arlington. Members of the
Loyal Legion, of which the deceased was a
member, will have the general charge of

quaintance In this city, where he had lived
for number of years.
