heart by simply fading away without
even giving an explanation. and no
body has any right to call him to &C,

retain the balance Of the state terri
tory and will within the next sixty

chief office will be-
Chas. L. Vetter, who has been office
manager for Mr.. Williams for the past
five years, will have charge of the In

their attention to the real estate end

Mr.. Vetter is one OF the best and
most favorably known of Pensacola 3

nized as a man Of exceptional ability
in the insurance world. The Union
Central has for years enjoyed large
business in West Florida, but Mr.. Vet
ter confidently expects to increase this
greatly in the future.
In the removal Of Mr.. Williams to
Gainesville Pensacola Will lose a valu-
able citizen and his departure will be
a matter Of regret to all who know
him. He will, however, have an OPP
portunity to develop a rich insurance
territory which he could not easily
reach while located in Pensacola Mr..
Williams is now out Of the city, but
will return this week. He will prob
ably move to Gainesville before July.
