CABOT VILLAGE CEMETERY.
IL Is Over 100 Years Old-Beauth I'll
as a Result OF Generous Citizens
and Former Residents.

The first burial in the Cabot VIII
lage cemetery was Miss Eliza Dutton,
on March 30, 1900. The plot was one
half acre, contributed by the late
Judge John w. Dana, for a public
burial ground, but the town
had a deed of it. About GO years ago
an addition of about four rods on the
west and south sides was bought by
subscription and was fenced with
posts and a board fence. Six years
ago Andrew j. Webster. of Menashe,
Wis, left $500, the interest to be used
in caring for this plot, which has
been put in very good shape. In
1906 the selectment bought one acre
in addition to the original lot.
In 1865 the late Judge Lance made
quite an addition on the west side
and his father, Joseph Lance, was the
first person buried in the plot. This
was private property and WIS sold
as such to individuals as wanted. At
the death of Judge Lance it became
the property of his sol L.. c. Lance.
Last May this property was bought
of Mr.. Lance by l.. G. Fisher, who
conceived the idea of greatly improv-
ing it by bringing water, building
drives and walks, and furnishing
seats, ETC., through the grounds. Ac-
cordingly he began writing to old in
habitants and those who had friends
buried in this plot, asking for as
sistance by the giving of funds with
which to beautify the grounds, to
which they responded literally In
sums ranging from $40 to 800.
The largest gift was that of Eugene
w. Paige, of P%ittsford, Mass, who
furnished a fountain at a cost Of
1925. The water is thrown up in
this about 20 feet, falling upon two
shelves and from this into a cemen'
basin, IL feet in diameter. This foun
tain is located on an eminence ant
the water passes from here to
smaller bronze fountain of beautiful
design. The water is carried through
the walks and drives and stand pipe
at different points to which hose cal
be attached so that all of the lot
can be sprinkled. Mr.. Paige not onl,
contributed the fountain, which bear
his name in bronze letters, but CAV
the sum of 500, the interest to b
used as may be needed in keeping it il
repair for ever.
Mr.. Paige was born in this town
His father and mother are buried /
this cemetery and on their lot he ha
erected a fine granite monumeni
These associations lead Mr.. Paige t
take great interest in the tow
to which he made this generous gif
which the townspeople heartily al
preciate.
L. c. Fisher took the laboring GA
in this undertaking and through hi
untiring efforts the work has bee
accomplished. The whole expense ha
amounted to $500, all of which ha
been raised through his efforts. TIL
people of town have donated lii
orally for this undertaking in none
and work.

Lewis b. Butterfly, of Montpelier,
says; Early in 1896 l endorsed
Doan's Kidney Pills through our To-
cal papers after they had cured me
of an attack of backache which had
bothered me for some time. My hack
was so lame and stiff that l could
hardly get around, and l was often
obliged to stop and rest. Learning
of Doan's Kidney Pills, 1 procured
a box ct w. E. Poole's drug store
and they brought me relief. 1t was
not long before l was cured a
there has been no recurrence
my former trouble. l can recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills inst
highly today as l did eighty YET

Prairie Road in Bad Shape

Mr.. N. o. Penny, wife and two
children, of Vero, stopped here Tues
day morning in their Cameron auto
mobile touring the state to Jackson
vile and Tampa. He had no trouble
coming from Fort Pierce to Titus
vile, but wrote us as follows from
Hawks Park Wednesday:

the end a bog with mud onwheels over
hubs; but we got through under our
own power. don't know who this
road belongs to, but it is a disgrace
to a progressive country"
The prarie road that Mr.. Penny
refers to lies in Volusia county.
That county made an appropriation
of 81, 800, provided citizens of the
East Coast raised an additional
81, 900, and it was reported several
weeks ago that $500 had been sub
scribed. The $500 would put it in

Death of S. N. GIadwin

1t is with the deepest regret that
we have to chronicle this week the
death of one of Titusville's oldest
residents and honored citizens, Steph-
en- N. Gladwin, who died Monday af-
ternoon, August 23rd, at his home
on Julia street, surrounded by his
wife, daughter Susie, and son Rich
ard, his elder son, Robert, arriving
latter from Fort Pierce.
The end was not sudden or unex-
pected as Mr.. Gladwin had been in
feeble health for over a year from
kidney trouble which finally resulted
in uraemic poison in the blood and
death. He was in his 18th year and
soon would have reached the seldom
attained mark Of four score.
Mr.. Gladwin was born in Haddam,
Conn, in 1880, and during the early
period of his life pursued the trade
of ship carpenter and joiner.
In 1873 he moved to Florida, set
tling first in the northern part of the
state, moving to Titusville in 1890.
Soon after his arrival here he entered
into a copartnership with the late T.
7. Wetmore and they established the
Indian River Ice Manufactury. This
copartnership lasted about eight
years, when Mr.. Gladwin withdrew
and devoted his attention part of his
time thereafter to boat building for
about seven years, after which he
was manager of the lumber yard at
this place for the East Coast Lumber
& Supply Co. until the yard was dis
continued.
Mr.. Gladwin was a man who won
the respect and good will of all men,
he was a good man in every sense
that the word could imply, and his
promise was the equal of his bond.
He was by nature a modest mar
and did not aspire to fame, but his
kind ways and gentle manners viii
be enshrined alway in the memGrie:
of those who knew him.
The funeral service was conducted
/ by Rev. VIM. Stones at the Gladwir
home Wednesday morning at II
O'Clock and the interment was made
in Ttusville cemetery, the casket be
ing banked with beautiful floral of
erings.
/ He is survived by his widow, tive
sons, Robert X. and Richard d. Glad
win, and one daughter, Miss Susic
Gladwin, who have the deepest sym
pathy of this whole section in tn,
death of husband and father.
