MISS VIOLA HORTON
DIES OF PNEUMONIA

Although her serious illness was an
nounced in or last issue. the death OF
Miss Viola Horton, in Palatka, early
last Sunday morning, came as shock
to her many friends in Fort Pierce, and
expression OF sincere regret were heard
on every side.
1t was only Wednesday of last week
when it was announced that she was a
sufferer with pneumonia in the hospital
at Palatka, and her sister, Mrs. w. r.
Jackson, and brother, Charles NJ. Hor-
ton, were summoned to her bedside.
During the few days remaining all the
care and love that skilled physicians
and anxious relatives could devise and
apply for her comfort and assistance
were brought into play, but the fiat of
Him who rules our mornings and out
goings had been issued, and after a
brief struggle, just as the newborn
year was being ushered in, the suffer-
er's spirit took its flight to that home
the Christian believes is the fulfllment
of the life everlasting.
Miss Clara Viola Horton was born at
Orange City, Fla. June Bird, 1884. She
moved with her parents to the Indian
River while still young child, and
most of her life was spent at Melbourne.
At an early age she united with the
Methodist church, and has since been a
consistent member of that congrega-
ton. Six years ago she entered the
hospital at st. Augustine to take a
course as trained nurse, graduating at
the end of three years; the next two
years she spent in special service as
nurse, often being in Fort Pierce. on
duty, or visiting her relatives when not
employed. About year ago, she, with
her elder sister, Mrs. Z. H. Williams.
removed to Palatka, where they have
since had charge of the local hospital,
where her death occurred.
The remains were brought to Fort
Pierce Sunday evening, and taken to
the home of her sister, Mrs. w. r.
Jackson, where they remained until the
funeral hour Monday afternoon. A
most impressive service was conducted
by Rev. Harry W. McCombs. in the
Methodist 1nUrch, ""Si.tel iy Rev. J
{. Jones, of the Methodist church. and
a select choir, which rendered several
appropriate anthems. After this ser.
wee all that was mortal OF Miss Viola
Horton was laid t. rest in the Fort
Pierce cemetery, where she sleeps along
SIDE the remains of her ncicc, Miss
Syb'I Horton, who passed away less than
two wears ago.
The floral offerings were most beauti-
ful and mofuse, and attcsted the high
character Of the deceased and the
esteem in which she was held by the
poor" Of Fort Pierce. Indeed we're it
not for the belief that she has been
called to better world, i. would seem
strange that one who has been of 50
much service to suffering humanity
Should ne cut down in the prime of life.
The pail bearers were: w. E. Van
J.andIngham, H. &. Cjnkling. w. H.
Jandon, Fred G. Hill, K. B. Robinson
and Perry Saunders.
The deceased is survived by two
brothers, Charles Nj. and Frank r. Hor.
ton, ana two sisters, Mrs. E. II. vii.
liamS and Mrs W. r. Jackson. and
hos Of friends along the Indian River
and the East Coast; to whom THE TRI.
BUNE extends sincere coincidence.

years of obscurity and neglect and he
frequently spoke bitterly of his bad

The last night the House chamber
was iilled to the doors with people
who gathered to witness the final
round in the senatorial fight Not only
was there no standing room in the gal
leries, but the floor of the House was
filled solid back Of the seats of the
members. and people were standing
two deep along the aisles.
1t was most demonstratiye crowd,
but feeling seemed to be evenly di-
vided. Applause came for every
speaker. but by far the greatest excite
ment came when Senator McCue rose
from his seat after his name had
been suggested by one of the Adams
senators, and declared that he had but
one choice, and that while Mr.. Speer
was In the race he was not a candidate.
When the assembly was called to
order Senator McCue moved that
seven ballots be taken. and that If no
choice was made the assembly ad-
journ. This motion was seconded by
Senator Adams. The seven ballots
was decided upon at a conference of
representatives Of the two factions.
The balloting began at about $3.50
and was followed with closest interest
by the crowd.
