Death of James A. Close.

The sad news of the death of James
A. Close at his home in Asheville, N.
c., on Tuesday, January 3lst, came
to NJ. H. Read in letter received
from Miss Elizabeth A. Close last
Thursday. The news quickly spread
about town and was everywhere re-
celved with the profoundest sorrow.
Mr.. Close had been ill for some
time, but his condition was not con-
sidered serious until few days be-
fore his death. A consultation of
physicians on Monday decided on an
operation. This was performed that
morning and was thought to have
been successful. But he never raj
lied, and died the following day.
The funeral, from the best infOr-
nation at hand, was held on Friday
last, and all members of the family,
with the exception of Mr. Fred B.
Close who is in Arizona and could
not be reached by wire, were present.
James A. Close was in the 18th
year of his age. He is survived by
Mrs. Close, two sons and four daugh-
tiers.
Deceased made Crescent City his
home from 1886 to 1903, when he
moved to Asheville in order to be
hi hill In al Ia NC
of his residence here he loved the
place and it's people, aud his home
with the beautiful grounds which sur
rounded it was not only his joy and
constant care, but the pride of all his
fellow citizens. He left here from
sense of family duty, and it grieved
him sorely to give up his pleasant
home. His removal was also sense
of grief to all the people of this place,
where the family were in the high
est and best sense social leaders.
James A Close was native of the
city of New York and in which city
he grew to manhood. His thirst for
adventure led him to strike out for
California when gold was discovered
there in 1919, and his experience and
hardships as a 'forty-niner, together
with the destinations which attach
to the life of a miner, led him to
adopt that work as life career.
Later he went to the mass copper
mines of Lake Superior where he be-
came interested in copper mining
with such signal success as to give
him a competence while still young
man. He was afterwards and for
many years engaged in merchandise
ing and banking. He came to FlOri-
da on his retirement from active bus
mess and settled in Crescent City.
And here, during the winter months,
visited by his children and some
times by his children's children, he
did enjoy a long and happy evening
of life. In point of years Mr.. Close
may have been old, but at heart he
was young, and if we were asked
what was the chief occupation of his
latter years we should say 1t was
to scatter sunshine and that he per-
formed the work perfectly.
His memory will never be etfaced
from the hearts of those who were
contemporaneous with him in thi,
place.

Crescent City News
CRESCENT CITY.

ts one of the most beautiful
locations in Florida Tourists
will find it an ideal spot to
spend the winter, or pass a few
days of keen delight.
The town Is on Crescent Lake
ian arm of the st. Johns Riverl
and Is 100 miles by water, and
n miles by rail from Jackson
vile,
The all day river ride on the
steamer Crescent, from Jack
sonville to Crescent City, is one
of the delightful experiences of
Florida travel. The steamer
leaves Jacksonville at 8 a. m.
every Tuesday, Thursday and
Saturday, reaching Crescent
City at 6p. m. This trip is the
only daylight ride up the broad
and picturesque st. Johns.
The steamer has pretty cabins
and offers a delightful outlook
even in stormy weather.
Crescent City is the center of
the orange growing industry in
middle Florida, and beautiful
groves surround the place.
The fruit is at its best now.
Good boating, hunting and
fishing will afford amusement
for sportsmen.
Naptha launches can be Sc
cured cheaply for water trips.
Crescent City has,good hotels
and boarding houses at mode
rate rates.
Beautiful shaded walks and
bicycle paths.
The Palatka news and advertiser. [volume] (Palatka, Fla.) 1902-1905, 1905-02-10

1t is now apparent to all that the
cold weather of January 18th and
9th has resulted in no more serious
injury in this section than the loss
of the fruit left on the trees. TIE
trees themselves are uniniured.
They are all shedding their leaves
fast, and in their unprotected state
will not be in condition to stand any
severe freezing weather. But the
time for that is nearly past. The
probabilities are that Crescent City
groves will have big crop the COM
ing season.
The big calendar for February
showed the date-22-in bold red
faced type and the young man had
puzzled over it for several days
Finally he thought he would ask
pater familias, and he sought him
out. "Say, father" asked the boy,
'whats this date, the 22d, printed
in red for?" "Why, er-" responded
the head of the family, don't you
know, that's, ah-er-the, why that's
the day the Southfleld Bible Con-
ference begins" And the boy
seemed satisfied.
Crescent City boys are getting in
line for an active base ball season
and it is their purpose to make a rec
ord of scalp taking that will contrib
ute to their fame as an amateur or
ganization. The club has already
had meeting and has organized by
the selection of Will Miller as mana
ger and Kingsbury Norton as cap
tain. Practice games will begin
shortly in order that the club can
begin the season by taking games.
Other towns should get at it early |
if they desire to stand any show
here this season.

The Stork.

Midst the pines and the crags and
the cliffs of New York
There lives good bird by the name
of John Stork;
He, his good wife, and of children
few.
They's Johnnie, and Bonnie, and
Willie, and Sue,
Who peek day and night from their
home in the trees,
To watch for and care for all little
babees.
Perhaps it is raining, er maybe a
snow.
Err storm clouds are rifting, er may
be they blow.
Be that as it may, whether dry er
it's wet.
The family of Storks are a-watching,
you bet,
Till there on the western horizon APP
pears
A quaint little basket with two little
dears
A-lookin' fer homes They blow
where the forks
OF the big river is, and are met by
the Storks,
Who pick up the babes with whirr
and whiZ
And carry them safe where some
sick lady IL.
For Storks are good people, ever so
kind
With thoughts for cheering the sick
in their mind;
Yet from Northland to Southland
from east to west coast,
They leave babes with those they re-
semble the most
Three cheers for the children and
three fer John Stork
May his heart be forever as light as
a cork.
And l have just thought: Hully
gee! Hully gee!
How | wish he would bring a nice
baby to me.
