DR.. MARTIN TAYLOR'S DEATH.
After Two Weeks sickness He Grows
Suddenly Worse-His Career.

DR.. Martin S. Taylor, man we'll known
by the older residents of Richmond and
Henrico. and held in high esteem by all
who knew him. died at s45 o'clock Sun
day night at his residence. No. SOP north
Fifth street.
His death was quite sudden, and
great shock TO his family and friends.
He had been in rather feeble health for
some months, and had been confined TO
the house about two weeks. but his i'll
ness was not OF such a character as TO
cause alarm Saturday morning. how
ever, there was a decided change for the
worse, and he sank rapidly. One of his
daughters, Mrs. II. +. Williams, who.
with her husband was spending the
summer in Fairfax county. was tele-
graphed for as soon as the unfavorable
change occurred. and they came by the
next train, arriving in time TO be with
him In his last hours.
DR.. Taylor was a native OF Henrico,
and had spent all of his life in that
county and Richmond together. He was
born at Hickory Hill February ,, 1923,
and was, therefore. in his I'D year. After
securing a good education deceased took
the course at the Dental College, In Balu-
more. and after graduation there studied
medicine in the Medical College OF Vir-
gina. upon receiving MS ulplOnld lrOIl
the latter institution, he began the
practice OF dentistry in Richmond. but
his health soon failed, and he returned
to his country home. where he resumed
farming operations. In 1881 he moved
back TO Richmond and engaged in the
feed business. which he conducted sue
cessfuly up to the time OF his death.
DR.. Taylor was intensely Virginian. He
was devoted to the State, and felt II
an honor to be one OF her sons Though
reserved in manner and quiet and
transformations In his habits he was
answering in his devotion to principle.
His life was pure and honorable. and he
had no liberation for what was not open,
horfst. and true. He was strong In his
friendships and tender, affectionate and
generous in the family circle. He was
twice married. His first wife was Miss
Annie Il. Lipscomb. by whom he leaves
five chlldren-Miss Belle Taylor, Mrs. Il.
T. Wilkinson, Miss Lydia Taylor. Mr..
w. T. Taylo-, and Mrs. II. +. Williams.
His second wife. who died about fifteen
months ago, was Miss OMohundro, OF
Charlottesville.
The funeral will take place from the
house at o'clock this afternoon. DIR.
Cooper and Rev. George c. Abbitt will
take part in the service. The interment
will be made at Hollywood.

Yesterday Afternoon.

Mr.. Byrd Warwick died suddenly at his
residence. No. COS west Franklin street,
Sunday morning at haif-past o'clock.
Mr.. Warwick had been In bad health
for some time. but his condition was not
such as to cause apprehension OF imme-
date danger. He was on. the streets as
usual Friday. but Saturday evening COM
planned Of slight indisposition. and that
night he was quite restless. Sunday MORN
ing he drove In from his country place, In
Chesterfield, where his family had gone
for the summer. his purpose being to con-
suit a physician. and while resting at MS
city residence passed quietly away almost
without a moments warning. The cause
OF his death was heart-failure.
SKETCH OF THE DECEASED.
Mr. Warwick was son OF the late
Corbin Warwick. Sr.. and had virtually
spent his entire life In Richmond, where
from his boyhood he had been great IA
vorite. As he grew to manhood ne was
central figure In Richmond society, mis-
bright. cheerful disposition and Loyal ma
ture making for him a host OF afdentiy-at-
tached friends. Some years ago he mar

him.
He was a devoted son. most unselfish
and affectionate husband and father, and
a true and warm friend. All or his IN
stincts were heightened and chivalrous.
and ne fulfilled TO the letter every de-
mard OF duty made upon him as citizen as
business man. and I'm the family circle. \
few years ago he connected himself WIN
Moore Memorial church, and in his Chris
tan life. as in all things else. he hved
strictly ND 10 his obligations. He scorned
all that was not straightforward ana scru-
puious correct and had the courage
to do the right as he saw it under all
| circumstances.
A CAREER OF PROMISE.
Mr.. warwick was in his 18th year and no
young man In the community seemed 10

career before him. No young man ever
passed away here who will be more gen.
