MRS. NELLIE WALDO


Christmas eve was saddened for
Ocala people by the tidings of the
death of Mrs. Nellie Waldo, who
passed away at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. W. w. Harriss, be-
tween and 9 o'clock Monday eve
ming.
Mrs. Waldo was member of one
of Marion county's oldest and most
honored families. She was a daugh-
ter of Col. Samuel Owens, one of the
pioneers and before the war one of
the states most wealthy planters.
She was the wife of Col. Joseph
Waldo, member of another of the
old-time families, who preceded her
to the better land some years ago.
She was sister-in-law of Col John
Martin, and filed loved and honor
ed place among the few left to US
from the beauty and courtesy of the
old regime.
The funeral services will be held
tomorrow morning at the home of Mr..
w. w. Harriss, and the remains will
be. laid to rest in the family cemetery
near MllIWOOu, WHICH Was the HOm6
of Col. and Mrs Waldo for many

Christmas in England; in Italy the
bees sing; in the Netherlands the cat
tie kneel; in Switzerland the sheep go
in procession; in the German Alps the
cattle have the gift of language Civ
en- them on Christmas eve; in Austria
candles are put in the windows that
the Christ child may not stumble as
He goes through the village streets
on Christmas eve. In Scandinavia all
the shoes of the household are placed
together on a table signifying an
agreement between the family to live
harmoniously for the ensuing year;
in Norway a sheaf of wheat is placed
on pole in front of every home for
the birds; in Peru open hospitality is
dispensed to both friend and stranger
alike.
Two notable coronations have oc-
Cured on Christmas day-that of
Charlemagne as emperor of the west,
and that of William the Conqueror at
Westminster Abbey.
Giles de Retz of France, the orig
inaI "Blue Beard" was executed on
Christmas day in atonement for a
multitude of crimes including the
killing of six wives, which incident is
the origin of the we'll known nursery
story.
In 1776, General Washington cele-
brated the day by performing one of
the most hazardous and brilliant
military maneuvers in the annals of
the war Under cover of night he
crossed the Delaware at McKonkey's
ferry amid the perils Of storm and
ice, and marched his. brave men to
Trenton, where the following morn
ing he completely surprised and de-
feated the Hessians.
The most beautiful thought con-
corning the celebration of Christmas
is the gift to all mankind of Christ
from whom we have received the
wonderful word of light and hope, the
truths of region and Christianity. It
is time in which to remember and
honor Him by helping the unfortu-
nate and rejecting from within us
the spirit of peace on earth, good
will to all mankind"
